Hi,.
Just noticed i'm running 3 tasks from same app (sixtrack) but 2 of them are 64bits and one is 32bits.
I wonder why... if Boinc recognizes my system is 64bit, shouldn't I receive 64bits tasks all the time (from this app, of course)?
Thanks

Hello, llagos,
sorry for the very late reply. I guess that the BOINC server tries to find the exe that best performs on your pc, before starting sending it over and over for production.
Hope it helps,
Cheers,
A.
