You could write an app_config.xml file to limit the cpu cores available to a particular project ie MilkyWay rather than go thru all that.

Write a what????

I have a similar situation. Any task that requires multiple CPU's gets locked up mid processing and the only way to clear out the machine is to abort ALL multi-CPU tasks. Very annoying and time consuming aborting them all. Not to mention lost DATA that researchers are missing out on. My only current workaround is to change settings when to no new tasks. Changing computer settings to use only 10% of processers then downloading only single CPU tasks. Once downloaded changing back to no new tasks and then restoring my CPU usage back to 90%.
