I know is a test application, but this behaviour is a bug... certainly shouldn't hijack a core. WU in question BOINC properties informs it as suspended... but keeps crunching. Machine Learning Dataset Generator (test) 9.91 ParityMachine-1626323656-7920-0 Suspended wrapper_001_x86_64-pc-linux-gnu I hope you find the bug, is there anything else can i provide?

Definitely a bug, but didn't think to try it until you mentioned it here, so thank you. It's definitely new behavior with the wrapper app. I'll look into it.

That's disheartening. Will take another crack at it tomorrow. ID: 1269 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

At least I was able to suspend a process with the latest test build on my machine. Releasing new test WUs now, so please test at your leisure. ID: 1271 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
