Thanks for the reply and debug details.

Issue is indeed GPU memory (366Mb < 400Mb). Where is the memory leak coming from in the GPU? CUDA itself or the BOINC processing?

Running Boinc 6.10.43 on Mac SnowLeopard with Einstein@Home it recognises the GPU on an nVidia 8800 GT card, is able to run one task but then starts downloading hundreds of GPU tasks. Often it then appears to stop running further GPU tasks but will continue running non-GPU tasks.

Some questions:
- is there any way to understand why it will only run one GPU task at a time?
- why does it continue to download lots of tasks when it has not completed the existing?
- any way to debug why it is not running further GPU tasks (guessing some issue with GPU such as memory left in use)?

Any help would be appreciated.
