I am running BOINC 7.0.28, 64 bit on Windows 7 Professional, although I noticed this shortly after switching to BOINC 7.0.xx.

I run Seti with a resource share of 100, and Einstein at 5. Both run on the nVidea GTX 460 with 301.42 driver only. The i5 CPU runs Malaria, Rosetta, and LHC Sixtrack with a resource share of 100. GPU crunching turns off when I use the computer, and all computing turns off in the afternoon (temperature and high utility rates).

The CPU works as expected, but I would expect Seti to run much (20 times) more than Einstein, Einstein filling in during Setis' maintenance and connectivity outages. However, they both run about equally, and I have seen it request tasks for Einstein and not Seti, which of course fills up the cache for a few more hours of Einstein.

I have adjusted the keep enough and additional work settings (staying under 1 day total), and they both been at .25 days for quite a long while now. That works to keep the computer crunching, just not necessarily the projects I expect.

I really don't care, I have nothing against Einstein, I just never got interested. It is curious.
