Questions / Algorithm for 'CPU efficiency'
August 19, 2015, 04:55:47 PM
Fred, please could you post (or email me) the algorithm you use for calculating the CPU efficiency of an individual running BOINC task?

It would be useful for the CERN projects which run their own tasks inside a virtual machine: a script monitoring CPU efficiency could tell whether the CERN server was keeping the VM supplied with tasks, and trigger a tweak to <max_ncpus_pct> (by swapping global_prefs_override.xml files) to allow another BOINC project to use the VM core when idle.
