If I could have one thing added to the Boinc Manager it would be the ability to control the number of each type of WU downloaded. I prefer to run a mixture of model types. I recently received 2 CM models to my dual core machine. What I really wanted is only 1. Since I calculate that they will take ~ 62 day each to complete this one type of model is going to monopolize that computer till sometime in late January. :( |

This is unlikely to get added to BOINC, because it's already present in Homo Sapiens V3.2 *************** When a computer is getting close to the 'download-more-work' range, as specified in the 2 options:
(which are in Computing preferences on the project's server), one may need to make manual adjustments.
*************** If the computer is already in the 'download-more-work' range, this too can be allowed for, but it requires the user to be running Homo Sapiens V4.1 to be able to cope. 1) Is more than one work unit going to finish? If so, do you want different model types for each-soon-to-be-available processor? If no: Don't worry about it. If yes:
PS This request has been posted several times on the BOINC/dev board, and been rejected. |
