Beta Testing / Re: Testing V 6.60
« Last post by fred on May 25, 2013, 08:55:44 AM »
Hi Fred, I had always considered asking this question in the requests section, but since there has now been a change to the output in the Programs window, my question might be more appropriate here:

Would it be possible to change the size of the TThrottle window? Especially after the change introduced in 6.60, a scrollbar is offered, but the option to resize the window would be appreciated as a cleaner alternative
It's rather complicated to get the layout right, with the different languages and all.
That will involve a mayor rewrite. But I may do so one day, when I got nothing to do.

Doesn't seem to want to accept image either
It's related to the number of post.
Spammers use the signature and avatar to setup link to there own site.

Hi Mysteron347,

     Comparing your options and mine, it appears that you need to get authentication?! Just a guess since you have so few options. I have, what I imagine is the normal, 7 options in the 'Modify Profile Menu'. It seems that you do not have permissions yet, which could be your account is not validated, or otherwise glitched during the process.

Thank you Fred. I've got the "point" back. Everything (BT & Throttle) else is working fine.

Wish List / Controlling process start-up
« Last post by Mysteron347 on May 23, 2013, 03:08:57 PM »
I can no longer afford to run my machine continuously, so I switch it off overnight - Mondays excepted as that's when the automatic backups are done.

What I'd like BOINCTASKS to do is:

1. Allow me to set a maximum number of instances of an application to run concurrently. 2 instances only of Constellation, for instance, since it's a real resources-hog.

2. Allow me to control when particular application may start up. For instance, Oproject/GSCE-SV doesn't checkpoint and runs for 15hrs+ on my machine, so I'd like to make sure it doesn't start after 0800, except Mondays.

3. Allow me to specify the order in which some tasks are executed, and to allot a number of cores to that processing. On my 8-core machine for instance, I may want to reserve 3 cores for WCG/HCMD2 (ok - that one's finished... ;D) or particular units in any sequence I choose. The other 5 cores are available for whatever the scheduling mechanism chooses  - even entries in my queue, but while there are entries in my selected queue, those 3 reserved cores will be allotted to processing my queue.

4. I'd like to be able to specify that any combination of jobs be run NOW - even if it violates the previous three rules.

I've seen some discussion on BOINC-oriented groups that suggest that many former BOINCers have stopped processing because of the increasing price of electricity. I'm sure that being allowed to manage the processing more directly would be appreciated by those like me - retiring to a fixed income.
