Why is computer 2 not asking for more? It's behaving as though I'd set it to use 50% of processors, but it's on 100%. When I update the project it says "not requesting tasks, don't need".

For some reason a long time ago I'd set Rosetta to have 12 concurrent tasks in Rosetta's config. I do wish Boinc wasn't so complicated. 50 places to enter options, all conflicting with each other. Somebody please write a nice GUI to bring everything together! ID: 105167 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
