I have installed the latest version of Boinc and followed the instructions for Docker (Podman) setup and everything is working normally for "regular" project tasks. I have found that when running a docker-based project task (BOINC Central), despite the overall CPU usage being below the thresholds; and overall CPU usage being relatively low; the PC fans kick in and run at full speed. I have managed to partially solve this by creating an app_config file for BOINC_Central to specify only running 1 project at a time. When my PC had no other work to do, the PC was running acceptably. However, because the CPU usage for BOINC project is below my defined thresholds, when other project tasks become available, it is trying to run those as well, and the PC fans are kicking in at full speed and getting very hot. Is there any way of configuring BOINC so that if it is running a Docker-based task, it DOES NOT attempt to run any other tasks? I don't want to have to prevent BOINC central from running on my device, but if I can't resolve this issue, I will have no option but to exclude it from my project list. I have also noticed that when my machine goes to sleep, on restarting, all of the docker-based tasks rest back to 0% progress. This seems wrong? I'm running on Windows 11.64-bit Thanks. |

Might be an issue with GPU Grid's URL change, that seems to be preventing one of my machines from getting any work. |
