As I understood from answers on CPDN forum BOINC GUI 4.09 has this problem when your system has 2 or greater CPUs (physical or logical i.e. HT System) and when there isn't enough work for these CPUs to do from projects you participate. Close BOINC. Change your general settings in any project to limit the processing to 1 CPU. Or you can change this also in global_prefs.xml file manually. Parameter "max_cpus" set to 1 and save file. Then restart BOINC. When there is enough work for all projects, you can change your general prefs back to 2 processors, and update project from BOINC. |
