It sure would be nice if there was some kind of status indicator, rumming, suspended etc. Something like what MSN messenger has. Just something small so we can see easily if we are running or suspended. I usually suspend when going on the net because the nbet works so much faster without BOINC running but sometimes, often, I forget to restart BONIC.What do you guys think??? :) |

There are far more important considerations for the very limited (in terms of personnel) development team to slave over. Another consideration is program size and simplicity - idiot-proofing (and Please :-), this is not a reference to you :-) ) would tend toward becoming bloated code, which would take cache space and slow execution, reducing productivity.

Truthfully I never expected the idea to fly more than a few feet. I just thought it might be something to place in the back of a developers mind for future reference. This is not idiot proofing it is making it easier to see if you are running and insure that your computer worksa to the max. Maybe one day but not now. Thanks for the reply. |
