I\'m also a member of SETI, LHC and Einstein - CPDN has 19.3% of alotted time. ID: 16494 · Reply Quote

Basically, your computer has enough work to do from all the other projects you are running.

Since I ddin\'t have any CPDN unit running, there came a time were nothing was undergoing calculations....so the system couldn\'t have possibly been overcomitted. Still, CPDN would ask for 0 secs of work... What to do? Thanks. ID: 16608 · Reply Quote

You can suspend all your other projects and reset/(detach/attach) CPDN But if BOINC doesn\'t want to download new work by itself, it\'s possible that once you have your CPDN wu, BOINC enters in EDF mode (because it\'s overcommitted) and keeps on crunching the CPDN wu without switching to the other projects wus.

This is a last ditch measure. Try a reboot first. (Suspend, exit, reboot.) This will give BOINC a chance to get itself organised. If this doesn\'t work, try a reset, which will kill all your current models, and download a new set. You should be able to just reset cpdn, if you\'re running multiple projects.
