Topic 197105

On my host 7484212 that I am running 4x BRP5 it is suddenly using 1 cpu+.25gpu per task rather than .2cpu+.25gpu. I have made no changes. Is it me or ? Did I overlook a change ? Also my cpu usage is down to 50%

BRP5 now using 1 CPU / task ?

Since a few hours I have the same problem: tasks that used 0,5 CPU and 1 ATI GPU now all of a sudden take 1 CPU and 1 ATI GPU. Did not make changes and cannot find what is wrong now.

THANX Arvid. Before I do the

THANX Arvid. Before I do the work around I would like to hear from a MOD or DEV or someone more in the know then my limited comp skills in regards to the issue because with the new v1.39 s I had an increase in gpu usage then even going down to 3x wu the usage stayed at 98 99 then had a gpu crash. So I'd like to know if the new app put a little extra load on the gpu. I also just upgraded Precision X to 4.2.1 before I noticed the change so it may be partly or wholly for the crash but not the usage increase. With 4x the usage was at 95-97. With the new wu 98 99. So I'm a bit in the dark on this. This box has been up 24/7 for several weeks at 4x just fine.

PS On my old rig (she just keeps plugging along ) its so slow it never got a BRP5 with the 1 cpu demand so I cant compare a difference.

Sorry, this was a misconfiguration on our side (the 1.39 App Versions use new plan classes). Was fixed 8h ago.

THANX Bernd. I just finished

THANX Bernd. I just finished up the last one I had left. I aborted 2 but I was half way thru the others and felt compelled to finish them. They did not get along well the other wu and had to suspend some other wu to keep everything stable but all worked out. Now there is no need for a work around. It's always good news when you learn its not your computer!! :) Have a good day.

I did not abort the running

I did not abort the running task using with 1 CPU and 1 GPU, and now it's finished. The new downloaded and started task uses 0,5 CPU and 1 GPU and that is normal in my case.
Arvid and Bernd thanks a lot for your replies.
