    [Resolved] E@H CPU usage

    I monitor my computers with BoincTasks. It is indicating that the E@H GPU tasks are only using 2 to 10 percent of the CPU. I have the setting at 1C + 1ATI and 1C + 1NV. It is taking 40 minutes real time to do 4 minutes of CPU work on average. Is this a problem? If so, how do I fix it? My WCG GPU tasks take 10 minutes to do 4 minutes of CPU work and that is at a setting of 0.2C + 0.2ATI.

    Thanks for the assist.

    It's my understanding that E@H only offloads the bulk of the processing to the GPU. There are still some mathy things that the WU require that GPUs can't handle.
    Hope this helps.

    I queried Fred at BOINCTasks about showing the GPU usage percentage like it does the CPU percentage. He said he'd take a look to see if it were possible, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
