1) Message boards : BOINC client : BOINC 7 development discussion thread. (Message 76036) Posted 20 Feb 2017 by SnapShot Post: I have been dealing with issues of BOINC performance declining based on using Task Manager as my reference. In the past three or more months I have found that the BOINC program when first loaded runs four to eight projects based on which computer and runs at the top nearly 100% of CPU performance. A week to a month later the amount of projects remain the same but the performance drops by 50% so these project tasks now run at near 49%. I noticed this first in the WCG totals over running the past near three years and so others that I have brought on board are telling me the same thing and getting the same drops in performance so it can not be the equipment but has to be the software. Others in a group I am in have come to me for best BOINC settings and their performance was doing very well and then dropped just in the past six months or so. I find that if I remove the BOINC program and reload it I get back to 100% and it runs that way for about a week to maybe over a month. I had others try this and watch their Task Manager and they claim they are getting the same reduction in performance and back up once they remove and reload the program. Just don't know what else to do or what is happening.
