Hello, I have noticed that my brand-new BOINC client makes very often my only CUDA task (in fact for SETI@home) waiting, to let other tasks run. Anyway, the SETI@home's CUDA task is the only CUDA task running on my computer. As CUDA tasks are more GPU-resources-costly, why would it stop CUDA to give more CPU cycles to other (CPU) tasks? Thanks. See http://www.student.montefiore.ulg.ac.be/~merciadri/ for more pieces of info. |

Thanks for your answer. Where can I modify these settings? I know for the consequences. Thanks. |

It's in the Computing preferences (I took SETI as example, the "6.7+" is meant as "6.6+"): Suspend GPU work while computer is in use? yes Enforced by version 6.7+ Gruß, Gundolf Computer sind nicht alles im Leben. (Kleiner Scherz) ![]() |
