(Message 84598) Posted 30 Jan 2018 by BelgianEnthousiast Post: Just to complement : I also observed the same behaviour with MilkyWay WU's on the GPU. Only one GPU is working, the second one remains idle while LHC keeps controlling 7 CPU cores...

2) Message boards : Projects : How to avoid CPU based projects to cannibalise GPU based projects ? (Message 84597) Posted 30 Jan 2018 by BelgianEnthousiast Post: Hi Everyone, I'm running 2 GPU's in parallel, usually for GPUGrid. I also run LHC. I dedicate 8 out of the 12 cores to BOINC. Up until a couple of days ago, LHC was taking 6 CPU cores, running one LHC WU each. GPUGrid is running tasks on my 2 GPU's and take 1 CPU core each. (so one GPUGRID WU per GPU and 1 CPU core per WU) This has been running flawlessly for ages. Recently however, LHC cannibalises one more CPU Core, effectively depriving GPUGrid from running a second WU on my second GPU. I've been playing with the resource settings, but in vain. Can anyone help how to restore the balance to 2 GPU WU's + 2 Cores for GPUGrid and 6 CPU cores for LHC (and 6 WU's) ? Your support would be most appreciated ! BelgianEnthousiast.
