I am running WCG and GPUgrid on a dual-core machine with hyperthreading. What are the most efficient BOINC settings for doing this?
----------------------------------------Currently in my WCG device manager, I have it set to use 75% of processors or 3 (trying to leave a thread for GPUgrid), and I left the "Switch between appications" at every 120 minutes. I have the shares for WCG and GPUgrid both set to 100. In "top" in Linux, it shows 3 WCG tasks each getting 100% processor time, and the GPUgrid task getting 2%. Is there a better way to do this -- so maybe WCG gets more cycles but GPUgrid still runs maximally? I figured I'd ask the experts before investing a lot of (human and computer) time in trial and error. Thanks in advance.  |

Clearly WCG is running at maximum on the 3 allocated cores, but GPUGrid is not running at maximum; you need to use swan_sync (search/ask over there for how to).
