Might be useful if one could select a particular GPU in a multi GPU setup to run a specific type of WU.

That might possibly allow optimisation of a particular type of WU's running state.

I find at present some APv7 GPU tasks will run on the least capable GPU, instead of the most capable and in tandem with a non AP GPU task that is then only completed in 3 times its normal running time on the same GPU.
So if one could specify a particular GPU for 'X' type of task it might be possible to limit the side effects of running 2 different WU on a GPU

So you want to run only setiathome_v7 on one GPU and only astropulse_v7 on the other?

<exclude_gpu>
   <url>http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/</url>
   <device_num>0</device_num>
   <type>NVIDIA</type>
   <app>setiathome_v7</app>
</exclude_gpu>

<exclude_gpu>
   <url>http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/</url>
   <device_num>1</device_num>
   <type>NVIDIA</type>
   <app>astropulse_v7</app>
</exclude_gpu>

Thanks,
looks like that should sort it out.
Wont be trying it just yet though, I'll wait until I've done my present store of WU.
