I hope you are aware I am already 'snoozing' the GPU, I was and am talking about the current impact of CPU processing.

Under WinXP32 I could also run much more intensive games _while_ BOINC was still crunching along (for instance Mass Effect, Bioshock, etc). No detectable impact from BOINC running these.

Regards,

Patrick.

Oh, and more addition: it's not only games which suffer; I forgot to mention VMWare Workstation, running a VM, is also terribly slow with BOINC/CPU active. Under WinXP32: again no problems, I could run a VM while BOINC was running with BOINC nicely throttling back giving cycles to the VM.

The Win7 scheduler seems to be horribly 'b0rken'.

Ciao, Patrick.
