1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : no mutiple cpu control, no run boinc (Message 8416)

Post:

Which project/WU will get the CPU is determined by your resource share and Short term debt. Boinc recalculated the debt and checks if any WU in in deadline trouble at the switch time set in the preferences, when a WU in completed and when new work is downloaded. It then decides whether to continue with the same WU or switch to another WU in your queue.

If you use two or more CPU you could have any combination of projects/WU running simultaneously, again, based on resource share and STD.



Is there a university course I can take on how manage Boinc?

I just uninstalled and deleted the Boinc directory. I got 9GB back. You try to help folks out and they take advantage every time...

bye

OK, I WAS running 4 projects. Set each one to use one processor and boinc will fill two processors, right? There is nothing to throttle boinc (and all charity clients) to one processor.

...yer it!

A long time ago I asked for the ability to control how many cpus are used for boinc. I see that this has not been accomplished; therefore I'll be STOPPING ALL BOINC activity on my computer.

I guess you either want all my cpus running or none. Here have none...

It's ridiculous that I needed to create an account just to say bye.
