Posted 15 Mar 2006 by old_user172476 Post: Mike, ran the tracert to 127.0.0.1 as suggested and got the one line response. Only difference is on my system it repplied <1 millisecond rather than the 1 millisecond in your example. In addition, I found that if I suspend the project while on the internet, the problem is resolved and I see normal web site responses. Also, I have stopped the hanging of my system by disabling network activity from the BOINC icon. ... Ron My instinct is that it\'s the network rather than memory in this case, because the focus of the problems on the PC seems to be in that area (thrashing would be leading to complaints of slow task switching and so forth instead). |

Posted 10 Mar 2006 by old_user172476 Post: As far as hogging my computer, it is most notable when accessing the internet. It seems to take forever to access web pages(minutes) vs seconds before installing BOINC. In fact, about 50% of the time I get the error \'page not found\' and have to select refresh sveral times to finally gt access to the web page I\'m going to. There doesn\'t seem to be internet traffic attributable to BOINC. This slow activity is consistent, it doesn\'t come and go. Also, how did I end up with three computers??? Could this be related to the fact that my system hung twice while running BOINC exclusively(overnight) requiring a forced power down to restart. My system has not hung at all prior to BOINC and my last restore about two months ago. ... Ron Re Suspending: |

Posted 10 Mar 2006 by old_user172476 Post: I just recently signed up and began running BOINC for CPDN. The work being done completely hogs my system making it almost unusable, especially when accesing the internet. I tried suspending the work process, but it apparently just spawned another and kept going. The situation is intolerable unless there is a solution to this. ... Ron |
