    If the web setting doesn't work you can use this app_config file. Provided you are using the development version of BOINC. Make sure to change the name of the file to app_config.xml before you put the file into the BOINC project folder for Einstein.

    OK! Twisted my arm and made me do it! So I have both of my 660 ti running two Wu's now.
    BOINC Sees it - BOINC DOES it!

    Yes! I have my 660 ti and 670's running two at a time. The 660 ti takes around 40 min and the 670 around 34 min per wu. I'm not sure what their load is cause I'm running them in linux but they are running 8-9c cooler than gpu grid tasks which usually run in the high 90s so I think they are around 90% load. The 7950s were running 2 in 25min at 82% load and I am now running 3 in around 34min at 92% load.

    Now if only this guy would run out of bunkers...

    No the app is not running two tasks either, I am doing something wrong.

    I just remember something, I am using 99% of computation on preferences for the computer maybe I shouldn't use 0.5 but a bit less or not?

    Matt...you are a monster on Einstein! Great going. Looks like you'll make the 2nd spot. Hope I didn't jinx you.

    I ramped up too late but I didn't know we were in it until a few hours after it started and I have only been all out for 24 hours. If I would have got enough tasks for the whole challenge in the first day it would be a different story. I am now up to 1400 tasks pending.

    Oh well, I always wanted to see what I could do on Einstein and this gave me a good excuse. I'll be back to gpu grid and NFS for the rest of that challenge this afternoon.
