No problem at all. As its name says, you only need BOINC Manager when you want to do some BOINC management or when you wish to check that everything is OK there. In between you can close it (e.g. with Ctrl-W) and that will save CPU cycles for useful crunching.

LAIM (Leave Application In Memory) tells BOINC to simply pause a WU when it has to suspend it, so this WU will simply resume to the next instruction when its turn comes back. Otherwise (with LAIM unchecked) BOINC ends the processing of the WU and it will have to restart from the latest checkpoint when its turn comes back.

Thanks Falconet. I got it and am installing.

I had some confusion as what value to use (F or C) but I think I figured it out. I have the core temps hanging right around 160 F and the GPU is right around 150 F.

first, there is little use in reporting a problem when there's no detail of the circumstances i.e. armstrdj wanted to know e.g. if the BOINC throttle (the CPU time % feature) was in use. Raul from his efforts seems to confirm it's indeed the continuous stop/go function that's part if not all of the problem.

You're missing nothing... 6.10.58 is fine too, but if the reports are an indication, a step up to above 6.12.41, (not 6.13!) might be called for at a later date when testing is complete. Since 6.12.41 still has the "http error 0" issue (introduced in 6.12.34), I'd wait and see.

As for TThrottle (short for Temperature Throttle), the tool has been featured on the Start Here FAQ index for longer :D. Don't know why folk are afraid of doing the RTFM ... probably increased the fear of breaking something one would not have known about to do without reading ;>) , but the C and F value to use can be changed in the temperature read out tab and will instantly convert all values and field labels when changing the selection... in fact, if you're told 70C, just change the selection, enter that value, then choose F and it will instantly convert it to 158 F:



So far, my soup box session, out in the desert :P

Don't know, but suspect the left column is the temp the program sets dynamically to get to a mean ceiling as per the setting and the right column of the pair reading out the actual temps to which the left value responds. For the exact answer you'd have to ask Fred, the developer.
