Description | BOINC Client 7.16.11 (And 7.16.14 on OS X) schedule too many cores (Example has tasks (1 GPU + 1CPU and 12 CPU Tasks) on 12 core system. On systems with more than one GPU, this intermittently results in a GPU task being skipped with an error like: "1/27/2021 4:53:58 PM | collatz | [cpu_sched_debug] skipping GPU job collatz_sieve_4404021a-de64-41b2-bbb3-0b8228e66814_0; CPU committed " Workaround that mostly works in my case: Add app_config.xml with project_max_concurrent to limit CPU tasks for any project enough let the GPU tasks get scheduled first. The CPU tasks then typically end up getting skipped instead. (I add project_max_concurrent to Rosetta and world community grid projects, but this isn't a perfect workaround). |
