Questions / BoincTasks JS beta 2.0 release...

Last post by Aurum - September 12, 2023, 04:06:03 PM

1. No Suspend on Checkpoint. This is the most important feature of BoincTasks.
2. Impossible to set column widths. Each time a column width is changed it also changes the width of columns on both sides. If another column is added it appears off screen to the right with no bottom slider bar.
3. On Projects tab if you sort on Project they're case-sensitive and so climateprediction.net appears at the bottom after World Community Grid. Please make it case insensitive.
4. On Projects tab if sorted on Project and one wants to highlight the top Project, e.g. Asteroids, you cannot. It highlights the last Asteroid computer and everything else. Below the top Project you can highlight any range you want.
5. On the Computers tab if you highlight a computer and click the Info button you get a nice display but it does not reveal the GPU. Please add GPU info.
6. On the Messages tab please add the ability to display a specific Project. Also it would be nice if it was displayed in descending order with the most recent events at the top and didn't require paging many pages to see latest events.
7. Please allow not viewing NCI WUs. Used to be able to select what to view: CPU and/or GPU and/or NCI.

Suspend on Checkpoint is the single most important advantage of using BoincTasks.
I can't find it on 2.0. Please add it.

Beta Testing / CPU% wrong for fractional CPU ...

Last post by hucker - August 08, 2023, 06:28:11 AM

If I set a task to take 1.5 cores, the CPU% column gives erroneous figures.  It works ok for whole numbers of  cores.

There's a good reason to set 1.5 cores, some tasks are more taxing and make the computer sluggish, so I make the scheduler do less of those by giving them 1.5 cores each, using <avg_ncpus>1.5</avg_ncpus> in app config.

Beta Testing / "Extra, boinc prefs" gets wron...

Last post by hucker - August 02, 2023, 02:58:23 PM

I have a load of Windows computers which Boinctasks works with fine.  But I have some oddities - a 2nd instance of Boinc on the same machine, using a different port.  And a Virtual Linux machine (Oracle Virtualbox) on the same machine (different IP).  Both these don't work with the "Extra, boinc prefs" menu if I'm in the task tab and select one computer on the left - instead it shows the prefs for a different machine, possibly the last one I looked at the preferences for.  If I go into the computers tab and select one computer not on the left column but in the main section, it gets the right one.

Hello Fred !

OK. I'll try that. I didn't change anything in BT settings. This "bug" doesn't even appear everyday... Sometimes it's here, sometimes I do not experience it at all for days.

I'll investigate more when I'll get back to the PC, in 15 days~.

Thanks and have a nice summertime !
