Questions / Re: TThrottle support for only 16 cores
October 19, 2023, 02:15:13 AM
32 is as far as I can go.
Above 32 I have to rewrite the driver and that's very expensive, probably in the thousands of dollars.
Microsoft made it much more difficult to add drivers.

V 2.2 Added Context menu, easier than expected and it is indeed a better way.

Beta Testing / Re: CPU% wrong for fractional CPU cores
September 20, 2023, 02:57:14 PM
What I personally like to do is start another BOINC instance and assign work to 1 or 2 CPU.
Or what I do in Windows use WSL to start another BOINC instance.

Quote from: Ytterbium on September 19, 2023, 05:41:57 PMIf I try to abort a whole bunch of task it doesn't seem to work any sugestions where to look.
Strange, not really.
Local or remote machine?

Quote from: hucker on September 14, 2023, 11:00:48 PMI'd assumed the task itself reported a time, and Boinc or Boinctasks divided the processing time by the wall time.  So you're saying Boinc or Boinctasks receives a % from the OS (like you see in task manager), and uses that along with the time the task has run for, to calculate the processing time?  Something somewhere (not in the OS) must be then dividing by the number of cores in avg_ncpus, but it's using an integer and assumed nobody would ever set fractional cores.  Under 1 core is odd I admit, but it's feasible to set say 6.5 cores in an 8 core task which uses an average below what it's capable of.
I think tasks are assigned to any CPU not a fixed one and may even transfer to another CPU.
A 24 core machine can and will run way more than 27 tasks.....
But the more tasks you run the more the CPU has to switch between tasks making things less efficient.

2.1 should resolve most problems.
The header width adjust is still open. https://github.com/efmer/boinctasks-js/issues
Tip: To adjust the header, make all other rows smaller.

I wonder if <avg_ncpus>0.7</avg_ncpus> does anything besides showing on the screen.
BoincTasks shows the actual run % reported by the OS to the Boinc Client -> BoincTasks.
70 min out of 100 min = 70% 100 min out of 100 min = 100%.
0.7 = expected run time 70%.

The CPU calculates these numbers. 0.7C is just an estimate and the real fraction may be something else.

4) You can suspend a range, click on the first one and shift click on another one.
To suspend all go to the project tab and suspend.
To suspend everything, use snooze on the icon. Or Extra -> Allow

8) https://github.com/efmer/boinctasks-js/issues/112

I can't find it on 2.0. Please add it.

03:15:45 (02:46:40) 85.14
The fist number is the clock time, the second () the CPU run time.
Non of this is BoincTasks controlled.
