cpdn will start back up when the seti time matches the proportion you have allocated.

for example of your "Resource Share" here at CPDN is set for 100, and your "Resource Share" over at the seti pages is also 100, they will try an do the same amount of work (CPU Time). So that may be a seti workunit completed and 1 trickle of CPDN completed.

Just be careful not to set CPDN share too low if you also have "Leave suspended tasks in memory" to "False" (the default setting), as if CPDN gets too short a time to run it will never make it to the next checkpoint (144 timesteps, which is usually 10-15 minutes).

This is normal.

The BOINC ver 4.xx uses pre emptive scheduling. This allows BOINC to switch projects at one hour intervals. (possibly longer depending on resource share)

You are just seeing S@H Pre empt CPDN. Nothing to worry about. :)

I am hoping Predictor gets upgraded to 4.05 soon I would like to see how well BOINC can handle three different projects with three different deadlines, I think CPDN does not really have a deadline.

Can someone copy and paste a shot of the CPDN info under the work tab.....

Pascal,

I'm not sure if this is what your asking for (the cut and paste job), but, I've done a few screenshots, which can be found here http://lonegunmen-online.co.uk/dc, hope this helps.
