I find the new "suspend if CPU load exceeds XX %" option that BOINC manager now has to VERY useful on my mainrig.
While gaming with BOINC running in the background, I always had the issue of increased loading times (by a factor of 2 or 3 - whyever that is) but almost never any lags that actually occured in-game.
So now, when a game is loading, it draws a little CPU (I think I set 15% because 25% just isn't ever reached on a hexacore
), BOINC shuts off for a few seconds, game loads quickly, BOINC auto-reenables, bingo 
Just very few games where BOINC really needs to be shut off to play. NFS series is a good example, and some shooters. RTS are all fine, for example - currently playing the new C&C 4.
@SoulsCollective:
Pfff, most of these games show no difference at all with BOINC running - SupremeCommander 2 for example 
No wonder your output is so low, with THAT ccconfig file
