25) Message boards : Questions and problems : FP benchmark ran only (Message 104852) Posted 20 Jul 2021 by boboviz Post: Had to look ESXi up to see what it was. ESXi is the free version of enterprise virtualization from Vmware.
26) Message boards : Questions and problems : FP benchmark ran only (Message 104838) Posted 19 Jul 2021 by boboviz Post: Is this something to do with the virtualisation? I know that benchmarks under WINE are I think about a quarter of what might be expected though you can get an accurate benchmark there by telling BOINC to use only one CPU, then manually running benchmarks from the manager after which you can let it use however many cpus it wants. I will have to look at my VB to see if it suffers the same issue. I'm using ESXi

Apps run correctly, nevertheless.

38) Message boards : Questions and problems : Use of BOINC and WSL: some confusion (Message 104125) Posted 26 Apr 2021 by boboviz Post: @boboviz Another important information to include in your guide is that VM has to be activated in the BIOS of the computer in order to install WSL2. And how to do it. As I imagen that the guide shall be used by less experienced Windows users like me – I never installed a VM machine or used PowerShell before – this is an important part missing in your guide. This step was not obvious to me! Uh, my fault. I will add that. P.S. At the beginning of the guide i wrote that cpu must support virtualization...but you are right, i have to write this better.
39) Message boards : Questions and problems : Use of BOINC and WSL: some confusion (Message 104122) Posted 26 Apr 2021 by boboviz Post: I would like to ask: where, with which name and with which extension the file shall be saved? geophi in the CPDN forum guided me to: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/wsl-config#configure-global-options-with-wslconfig tells you to save the file .wslconfig (no extension), in your Windows user's root directory, i.e. C:\users\(user). Then restart WSL 2 and it will read the file upon restart and that should limit CPUs and RAM used in the VM. and although still received the error, it worked as he indicated. I'll add also this in a new version of the guide. Thank you!
40) Message boards : Questions and problems : Use of BOINC and WSL: some confusion (Message 104121) Posted 26 Apr 2021 by boboviz Post: "For the most recent version of Boinc, the command is: boinc.exe -daemon -gui_rpc_port 2536" Maybe this part is not translated in the english version of the guide.... Fear not, that post referred to a previous version of my English Translation. Your addition did make it to v0.8 English Translation on page 7 Oh, well, thank you!
