client processes always run in low priority instead of normal. I want to set them to normal like all other processes and am having to do it manually and that sucks. If anyone can help, Thanks. If not, hey - I you got to read this far!! |

BOINC is a "low priority, background process". It was designed to be that way, so that all other programs get priority when they want to run. |

Are you the same person (or family) who posted the same thing in Seti? If not, just go read what everyone posted there. ;) |

To answer my own question. Not that you should have to as it is a waste of resources but if you set your client preferences to leave the dll in memory, then after it has loaded change priority to Normal (Do not try going higher because all you will do is create an unstable system). Now the client will run with Normal process priority until boinc is closed or dll removed from memory. |
