The requests of this hosts says that the host has effictive number of cpus=1. Therefore this host doesn't get a workunit. yoyo . ID: 1947 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Hi Yoyo, sorry to bother - could I trouble you for a little hand holding here? I've been fiddling with my BOINC and YAFU settings tonight. Yes, 71923 I see total number of CPUs = 2 under the computer information for this hostID Given this is just a modest Lenovo PC, is BOINC just showing 1 'effective' CPU and that is maybe not enough to trigger a WU download?[/img] ID: 1948 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
