Checking out the appconfig posted early here and see how well it works :)

Those are relevant to a specific computer, the one posted (I copy below) makes no sense to me. Looks like it's for a 6 core machine, and for some reason splitting into three twos. Why not just run one six? I also make the avg lower than the nthreads, so it runs more than it should, because there's always one in startup phase using only one core, which allows the others to take over the unused cores.

No it's for any of my multi-core pc's that are also running tasks from other projects and I'm limiting it to 6 cpu cores for Milky Way to use. I prefer the 3 double cpu tasks because they take longer for me to crunch and they also don't get hung up like the 16 cpu core tasks do. I never run both cpu and gpu tasks from the same project on my pc's, and no I'm not running multiple Boinc setups on my pc's, so this is an easy way for me to limit the tasks in this case for Milky Way and also run tasks from other projects at the same time. Just for info I was also running the Yoyo ecmP2 tasks at the same time and had the last line set to 1 to 4 tasks depending on how much ram was in each pc, I deleted all the other lines except the final line when I put it in the Yoyo folder.

<app_config>

<app_version>
<app_name>milkyway_nbody</app_name>

<plan_class>mt</plan_class>
<avg_ncpus>2</avg_ncpus>
<cmdline>--nthreads 2</cmdline>
</app_version>
<project_max_concurrent>3</project_max_concurrent>

</app_config>

Still working its way down, but at least it's going in the correct direction.

You jinxed it!

will these work ? open cl 1.1 but are DP

I have so many tasks pending the server has trouble loading the "tasks" page. I agree with the aforementioned solution of increasing WU size. The sheer number of these tiny WUs is probably the majority of the server side problems. Since there is such a discrepancy between a high DP card and a low DP card, doubling the runtime on a tahiti with its 1/4 DP would increase a 1/32nd DP card to 16x? A 750ti looks to run 1 Wu in about 100 sec, and a 1080 in about 25 sec. If the tahiti time doubled I think that would mean 1600 seconds for a 750ti and 400 seconds for a 1080.

If you double the length of the WU, the runtime doubles for all cards.

ie right now all cards are "running a 100 yard dash". If you made it a 200 yard dash, all the cards times would go up by a factor of 2.
