Folding Forum

Oops, I think you meant a different sort of core. I meant which core of my dual core processor, 0 or 1. I assume it detects which one already has a folding process running on it or it detects which one is under heavy use. Not that it really matters anyway seeing as it's using the right one. Oh, and ...

Thanks, that's really helpful!

One other thing. How does the GPU client decide which CPU core to use?

well it seems to be using my spare core so that's great

Great! That's so much help! What's the best way to get rid of one of the CPU services? Is there some way I can get it to end when it's finished the next WU? Does it matter which core I have the CPU service on? I was having trouble before trying to get the GPU2 client to work. I eventually worked out...

Oh okay, well that's reassuring to hear that I'm getting normal results. I think I might try running GPU2 and one CPU. When I tried the GPU2 client it seemed really odd. When I went to the display it would start processing some test data and say "core not active". After a bit of that it wo...

All I'm getting is about 400 PPD, that's really useless right? Should I be getting more? I've got it set up as a service running one instance on each co...
