Hmm, solved this while I was typing up the message :] I\'m running BOINC on Suse SLES9 on a 2-Xeon machine with Hyperthreading, and after a while it started using just two of the four reported CPUs. Turns out in my general preferences max # of CPUs was set to two, although I don\'t remember ever changing that. Fixed the preferences, restarted BOINC with -update_prefs http://climateprediction.net/ and got it working again...
