1) Message boards : Questions and problems : eOn hogging all my time (Message 40679) Posted 15 Oct 2011 by John Baker Post: I have 5 separate projects running that use the computer for 3 hours then switch to the next project, etc. But eOn only sends me tasks that, for example, require 6 hours of my computer time and are due in 10 hours, forcing them to run "high priority" in order to be finished on time. As soon as the eOn task is finished, it uploads the finished one and downloads another, which also has a very short deadline which also has to run "priority." Because of this, none of my other projects can use the computer. I have dropped the resource to 50% for eOn, while leaving the rest at 100%, but this hasn't stopped the above condition. How can I get longer task deadlines for eOn so that all of my projects can use the computer equally? The only thing I have found so far that works is to set eOn for "get no new tasks" for a week or so, then get one task and set it again for "no tasks" for a while. There has got to be a better way.
