I think that a GPU can run 2 or more tasks.

On windows task manager I find that GPU's computing has been suspended at per 25% rate of progress. My computer GPUs are HD7990. It can finish a task within 48S, but it takes almost a 10S rest every 48S. I think that project preferences can be added GPU utilization factor like einstein@home. users can be allowed to change it as a user preference. |

You can change it yourself in app_config under gpu_versions. |

You can change it yourself in app_config under gpu_versions. Thank you for your reply. But Where can I find that? Is it a .xml file under the C:\ProgramData\BOINC folder? I can't find any files with names you said under the C:\ProgramData\BOINC folder, C:\Program Files\BOINC folder and their subfolder. |

<app_config> <app> <name>milkyway</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>0.5</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>0.25</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> </app_config> Save this as app_config.xml in Milkyway's project folder (use plain text editor like Notepad) and it will run 2 WUs per GPU. With <gpu_usage>0.33</gpu_usage> you can even run 3 WUs per GPU, but you'll have to check yourself, if that's better than two or not. Btw, don't need to care about the cpu_usage value as long as you don't run CPU tasks, this is just what I have in my app_config. EDIT: This file does not exist if you didn't create it yet by yourself and should be placed in C:\ProgramData\BOINC\projects\milkyway.cs.rpi.edu_milkyway |

<app_config> <app> <name>milkyway</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>0.5</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>0.25</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> </app_config> It works, thank you |
