I am not being able to grab any tasks from YAFU. Other BOINC projects are working fine. On the server status page I can see that there are tasks available, but for some reason my client is not being able to grab them.

Thanks. |

All your hosts have no more than 6 cpu. So you get only yafu and yafu-small workunits. Those both queues are very often empty. |

Thanks. It seems to have to do with computing preferences, which, when set to use only one core (eg. 25% on a 4 core cpu), makes it so that no yafu tasks run, even after setting yafu as using one cpu on app_config. I have fixed it by setting computing preferences back to use 100% of cpu cores. |
