Hello all-
My machines are quite slow, and I'd like them to focus on the Climate Prediction project 100% of the time. How do I 'delete' a project (I'd like to stop running SETI, sad to say).
Also, why is there a setting to dedicate X% of your resources to each project, but also a setting to switch between the two projects every 60 minutes?
Thanks in advance,
LvScience

Go to the 'Projects' folder, klick with your right on the doomed project and chose 'Detach..' I Don't wanna try for fun, but i think from 2 days ago with detaching for a while from P&H i got some 'Are you sure?' Window. But as I'm not sure ;-) about this, I won't test yet:-)

The other part of the question.

BOINC switches between applications every x minutes (as set in your preferences). At the end of this period (or when a WU finishes) BOINC evaluates which project should be run based on the resource shares specified, and how much work each project has had done for it.
