How do I get YAFU to stop sending me tasks that use up 100% of my cores?

Posted 18 Jul 2017 by NullNVoid Post: @yoyo --- you can disregard my previous message. I had forgotten that I had an app_config file on the computer that was specifying how many cores I wanted the 16t tasks to use. Deleted it and all is fixed. 16t tasks requesting all cores available. |

Posted 18 Jul 2017 by NullNVoid Post: @yoyo_rkn I'm having something peculiar going on. Wondering if you have any insight. I changed my YAFU settings to only allow 16t tasks (which is working out great, btw). I have two computers that have the same Ryzen 1800x processor and here's what's happening: Computer A: Receives 16t tasks that specify that they will use all available cores. So for example, it might be a 16t task but it shows that it will use 24 cores. Computer B: Receives 16t tasks, but they do not request to use all available cores. Instead of specifying that it'll use 24 cores, it presumably is just using 16 cores. The difference is that Computer A seems to get more than 6x the work done (judging by Cobblestones) than Computer B. Is there a certain setting I need to change on Computer B so that it receives tasks the same way as Computer A? EDIT: In case you need to look at my computers: Computer A is #18327 Computer B is #18065 The only major differences between the two computers is that Computer A has far more disk space available (~400GB available as opposed to just 40GB on Computer B). And Computer A is also running Windows 10 Professional as opposed to Windows 10 Home. |

Posted 17 Jul 2017 by NullNVoid Post: Thanks - that's what I've landed on. Running solely 16t tasks now and everything is running much more efficiently with all cores utilized. |

Posted 14 Jul 2017 by NullNVoid Post: YAFU occasionally sends tasks from the 16-core app that wants to use all 28 cores I have available in my Computing Preferences. Is there a setting I can use to stop this from happening? This results in my computer running a single 4-core task for an entire day (while there's a 28-core in queue) when it could be running two tasks (a 16t and a 4t, or a 16t and an 8t, etc). Just want to make sure I'm utilizing my cores efficiently. The 28-core tasks it's sending me would be okay if that were all it sent me. I suppose I could just remove 4 and 8 thread tasks on my YAFU settings but I feel like that would hurt my RAC. Any advice? |
