1) Message boards : BOINC Manager : CPU usage adjustable in two steps - busy / not busy (Message 62354) Posted 28 May 2015 by Schmendrik Post: Hi there, I searched the forum but wasn't able to find any related item: I'm using BOINC on a laptop and used to run the CPU at 100% on my desktop. But on my laptop this drives the fan (and me) crazy. That's why I reduced the cpu usage to 25 or 50%, which creates a fair noise floor. But when I'm not busy on my laptop I could imagine that the noise floor does not matter to me and cpu usage could therefore be increased back to 100%. As soon as I'm back it should be reduced to whatever I configured before. Could anyone imagine using this very useful feature too and if yes, could the programmers implement it? Thanks in advance!
