Looking for some help in setting up Astropulse in app_info.xml I have an i5-5300U 4-core (physical) w/ HD 5500 graphics. 24 execution units. Does anyone know right balance of CPU cores settings to load the GPU to best performance? How much free CPU does the GPU need? Right now I'm running 2 WU instances on GPU. Boinc computing preferences set to "On Multiprocessor systems, use at most 75%". Boinc Manager Tasks shows "Running (.04 CPUs + 0.5 Intel GPUs)" Should I use different values in GPU section for avg_ncpus and max_cpus? Do I also need to add-in a similar section for the AVX app or let BOINC handle it? I want to ensure the GPU gets enough free CPU, but not quite sure how much to dedicate to it. Any help is appreciated! :)

Looking for some help in setting up Astropulse in app_info.xml Finally got something other than the old C2D iMac. |

Haha. That 2006 T7200 iMac is still going thanks to a 2nd power supply now. I retired it from active Seti duty...mostly. Donated the 2003 G4 MDD to my sons school last year after 11 years running. The Mrs. made me, lol. Was curious to throw a new windows laptop on w/Broadwell cpu and see how the iGPU does. Rather impressed by the modest lil thing so far. |
