This may be a Boinc problem? If so my apologies to Raistmer.

That was the first suspicion I mentioned (Boinc cpu scheduling foulups) But after experiencing it I'm not so sure. It may simply be not receiving the updated flops counts for whatever reason. Hopefully it is their problem not ours ;)

It seems there are no function calls to accumulate the flops while it is running. (compute_fraction_done or whatever Cuda app uses) [Edit: It will be interesting to see what the Wingman Claims).

LoL You know , I never cared about credits much ;D
But it's interesting indeed why it can't accumulate flops in this case... very interesting.
But except credit question all just work as intended! BOINC tried to leave your GPU IDLE (it started only CPU apps ) but CUDA app resisted and made use GPU at least until it finished its work. All possibilities to keep GPU busy were used!

LoL... Yeah, something's busted though for this weird behaviour. Boinc or app doesn't matter.
Running 3 AP's has my system rather oversubscribed it seems, so throughput was quite a bit better running 2 APs rather than 3.
Will be reverting to my 'classic' setup, and if that doesn't work, will consider pawning my PC for beer money :P [Damn it's working no beer for me ;) ]

I'm sure we can sort something out if you join Matt on his tour of Lancashire, Yorkshire, Nottinghamshire, Cambridgeshire.... :P

If that's the tour where we all travel through townships cross country in a yellow combi-van wearing poncho's and funny hats, stopping at every pub along the way, Count Me In! ;D
