hi forum, i'm new to boinc(i have it for like 5 days),

i have a question regardin multi-threaded tasks, i saw that AQUA@home has those kind of tasks but that is discontinued right?. So i kept searching for such a project, then i found it: Milkyway@home. Only problem here is that i have never seen a multi-threaded task from Milkyway@home (i know how bonic works!, and i know how to add projects and stuff!) but i have 3 pc's(only one of them is a personal SERVER, it has 4CPU's!(8threads), i want to use that power for multi-threaded tasks... So my question is, how do i get boinc to accept only milkyway@home tasks that are multi-threaded

thx

Since Milkyway has no way to set which applications you want to run, they'll get onto your system automatically. They're the N-Body tasks, recognizable by the (mt) addition in the name, but I can tell you that they don't run for long. 3 to 9 seconds at most on my i3-530 (2+2).

So in their case, you can't, unless you want to spend time on setting up an anonymous platform file. But then you have the problem that their N-Body tasks aren't around much. They only come in batches.

thx, btw you can select different applications from there website(if you mean that you can select wich application you want to receive)

Oh, so you can. Must be a new addition then, since their server update a week or what back. Ok, thanks for that.
