Re: ? option to set how many cep2 tasks run at 1 time ?

The WCG Device Profiles control the number of CEP2 tasks you can have in the que, but not the number that run concurrently. That can be controlled by using an "app_config.xml" file in the WCG project folder of the Boinc data folder.

There are a ton of posts on how to set that up, just search for "app_config.xml" (no quotes) in the forums.

Note that it requires you be running client 7.40 or later.

Select Custom Profile in Device Manager
Project Specific Settings (second section from bottom)

I set "Number of workunits per host" to 4 in "Device Profiles", and am running on all 4 cores of my iMac without any additional setup, is it not supposed to do that?
