1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : Wishlist for Mac (Message 18789) Posted 23 Jul 2008 by Bonzauker Post: I already posted this somewhere else and I was told it was a great idea... Why you don't implement an option to choose the number of processors to be used when the Mac is idle and when it's busy? I'm running a Mac Pro with 8 2.8 GHz cores, right now I always dedicate 2 cores to Boinc but it would be great if, apart from the memory use (which is useless), user could decide the computing burden for such situations. Just my company with 13 users could increase the output of 20%. P.S. I tried a 6.x something, instead of choosing the number of cores now there's a %... Which is absurd, is it more intuitive the number of cores or a percentage?
