Description

Original proposal in this thread by HeatSurge? [url]​http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=51814[/url]

The aim: Allow good gaming (or another GPU-intensive task) experience while continuing CPU-based computations.

Problem of current available solution: Current "Suspend BOINC" option will stop both CPU and GPU apps, but in most cases only GPU-related apps should be stopped. That is, we have waste of resources available for BOINC projects.

For automate BOINC suspension something like exclusive_GPU_app flag could be introduced in analogue with exclusive_app flag.
