Yes. The tasks are crunched FIFO until BOINC detects a deadline problem then it goes into EDF mode.
The next version will work a little better instead of going into true EDF mode tasks with deadline problems will get more CPU time. I don't think we managed to convince JM7 that EDF is better than FIFO before deadline problems start though.
Note: This applies to a single project situation. |
