I was running 2 projects Climapredictiom and rosseta, after some minutes running both, climapredictiom change work status to PAUSED, rosseta still running but climapredictiom after some hours still paused. Should not the Boinc run both projects in the same time? ID: 18973 · Reply Quote

Older types cannot. Instead, BOINC switches from one to the other, and that is what has happened here. After a while, BOINC will switch back to climateprediction. The proportion of time BOINC spends on each project is determined by the resource share set in your preferences. Unless you have changed this, over time BOINC will give equal time to each.
