Also note that I'm currently running 4 projects. SETI, EINSTEIN, CPDN, and Rosetta.

The only thing I could come up with is the leave apps in memory setting as to why it would be doing it. I actually was looking at my CPU usage and saw one core at 100% and the other at 0%, looking through processes it showed 25% for two projects, which would mean both were running on the same core. I should have taken a screenshot of it, but did not think of it at the time.

So far turning off the leave project in memory when suspended has worked to keep it from doing it again.

I have also got this AMD 5000+ BE up to 3.2Ghz stable... 16X multiplier @ 200FSB, DDR2-800 @ 800, and volts up from 1.325 to 1.450. Load temps @ 40-44C depending on ambient room/case temps.

I am running both the Boinc optimized version and the latest optimized Seti Client without the problems you are having.

On your account's options page have you set the category of CPU usage to the proper number of cores?

Tasks that become suspended if they are set to keep the apps in memory don't get their affinity reset once they become re-activated, and sometimes you will eventually get two apps running on the same core because of this, leaving one core completely idle. A workaround is to set BOINC not to allow the tasks to remain in memory when not active, this is in the BOINC settings in whichever projects you are attached to, I don't believe that you have to change them in all places, but I'm not sure. This is running Crunch3r's Optimized BOINC v6.1.0

I'm just curious how many others have noticed this phenomenon if at all?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20809840 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 00:30:59 EDT
