What BOINC features we need and what don't

<< < (3/4) > >>

WHRoeder:
On another forum (MW or Boinc) someone reported that 6.3.?-6.6.37 has a bug in the scheduling calculation. That why we get the won't complete in time message.
Its been fixed in the main trunk.

Raistmer:
yes,geles posted on BOINC and I on MW, will see what that fix is. But  unfortunately, it solves fetching problem but not solves scheduling problems...

ralph:
I think that trying to lay all this on the BOINC Manager might make it too complex, but a "BOINC Setup advisor"  might be a good thing to design.

The setup advisor could:

1) analyze your hardware, along with BOINC projects, and figure out what science applications to recommend, based on effiencies and/or workunit data sizes.  For example, if I have an nVidia GPU, it could recommend applications that used that feature.

2) connect to your friends (based on their e-mail address, or where you went to high school or college) or 'geek buds' (based on their hardware similarity) and invite/encourage them to complete with you to process workunits.

Any other suggestions?

Vid Vidmar:
I would like to have the ability to set resource shares between projects per resource (cpu / gpu ... ).

What, like having 4 core cpu with different projects running on each core at the same time(+gpu)
It seems to be easier to schedule properly each project
