1) Message boards : Questions and problems : Controlling CPU resources consumed by the client on Linux (Message 110571) Posted 28 Nov 2022 by krytie Post: I'm running due diligence over BOINC and was wondering how the client handled resource control on a Linux machine. Are the limits absolute or are resources dynamically controlled? Could I set a rule whereby a project consumers 80% of resources on a machine, but that drops down to 20% when other processes on the machine require it? If anyone could point me to that part in the source code that does the resource control, that would be appreciated.
