2) Message boards : Questions and problems : Suspend when non-BOINC CPU question. (Message 105654) Posted 5 Oct 2021 by myjunkmalebox Post: I'm pretty sure it's using just CPUs. I don't think the issue is anything to do with the media server (just an example of alternate load). It does this when the media server is off, and the computer is effectively doing nothing (other than BOINC).
3) Message boards : Questions and problems : Suspend when non-BOINC CPU question. (Message 105642) Posted 4 Oct 2021 by myjunkmalebox Post: When I have the "Suspend when non-BOINC CPU usage is above XX%" setting turned on the processor usage constantly bounces. This causes the CPU fans to constantly spin up and down. It does this a LOT, I fee like I'm losing a lot of processing time to this. BOINC is allowed 70% CPUs with 100% time. Suspend when non-BOINC is over 25%. The system has 32 processors, so it takes a lot to hit that 25%. This server does have an in home media server on it which is why I use this setting. If I'm watching something that requires significant transcoding in HD I don't want the video quality to suffer. In my testing I ensured the media server was turned off. With the suspend setting off, proc usage is solid 70% With the suspend setting on it constantly pauses and un-Pauses. Some times several times per minute, some times it'll wait a few minute between pauses. It's not clear in this image, but when a pause happens processor usage drops to less than 5% for a few seconds, then jumps back up. Is there a way to stop the bouncing?
4) Message boards : Questions and problems : Not working, no errors (Message 90130) Posted 14 Feb 2019 by myjunkmalebox Post: So it looks like it may have been working all along, but just not reporting in the graphs. I usually check the graphs to see 'how much science' I'm doing, and they've been flat for a while. https://i.imgur.com/MmjvSr9.png However when looking at the tasks tab, i can see progress being made. 2/13 https://i.imgur.com/lUYoB0I.jpg 2/14 https://i.imgur.com/6Z1rSpx.jpg Does that make sense? Can i fix the graphs? I like seeing how much science my computer has done.

6) Message boards : Questions and problems : Not working, no errors (Message 90014) Posted 11 Feb 2019 by myjunkmalebox Post: In my last post I provided links to screen shots of my settings, they appear to be setup correctly. Activity is set to "Run Based on Preferences" This was working fine for about a month, no changes were made to the system or the config.
7) Message boards : Questions and problems : Not working, no errors (Message 89969) Posted 8 Feb 2019 by myjunkmalebox Post: BOINC is set to have 100% of everything between 4pm and 845 am. ie, when I'm not working. and 0% while i'm working or using the server. Science United was how I found BOINC, i'm not opposed to using a different Account Manager if that might help. Settings: https://i.imgur.com/meFBXnQ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/N1qPtMn.jpg
8) Message boards : Questions and problems : Not working, no errors (Message 89965) Posted 8 Feb 2019 by myjunkmalebox Post: I've had BOINC installed and running for about a month with out issue. Yesterday I was just checking on it and noticed it hasn't done any jobs in about a week. I don't see any error messages, I restarted the PC and it still did no work overnight again. It did pull a job from a new project, but it didn't do anything for that job. * Which BOINC version you run. 7.14.2 * If applicable, the project(s) that you have the problems with and if they have multiple applications, which ones give you problems.
