Hi, I'm trying to get my Mac to process 100% of the time only using a portion of my processor time. It was set to only run after 1 min of no activity. I've tried to reset this to zero but the Boinc client won't accept a zero. I've set the suspend when active to'no' and updated the client's setting but the boince client will only start processing after 1 min on no activity - as soon as I touch mouse/keyboard the client suspends - I want it to carry on. My web prefs are below. Any ideas please? Thanks, Richard Suspend work while computer is on battery power? (matters only for portable computers) no Suspend work while computer is in use? no Suspend GPU work while computer is in use? Enforced by version 6.7+ no 'In use' means mouse/keyboard activity in last 1 minutes Suspend work if no mouse/keyboard activity in last (Needed to enter low-power mode on some computers) --- minutes Do work only between the hours of (no restriction) Leave applications in memory while suspended? (suspended applications will consume swap space if 'yes') no Switch between applications every (recommended: 60 minutes) 60 minutes On multiprocessors, use at most 2 processors On multiprocessors, use at most Enforced by version 6.1+ 100 % of the processors Use at most (Can be used to reduce CPU heat) 50 percent of CPU time |

If you've accidentally set the local preferences, they override the web preferences. You may want to check there to see if the preferences are set. |
