When we set BOINC via its web preferences to perform no processing when the computer is "in use" or "not idle", can someone give me a definition of what this means? Does it fit the same definition of idleness that would trigger a screensaver? Does it apply to the command line/ background service version of BOINC? When BOINC is invoked, how long will it wait for new "idleness" before processing workunits again?
