4.14 didn't screw anything for me. running it for 2 days now on a dual xeon box with w2k pro. attached to cpdn/einstein/lhc/proteinpredict/seti

As far as I know boinc is ansi c (sience apps c/c++ and fortran)
where did you read that java was used (out of curiosity)

raising resource share solved the issue. Seems to be a bug to me nevertheless.

Thanks for the info (both)

on my dual xeon only one wu gets downloaded. when I update the climatepredict project, the messages show me cpu sheduler starvation imminent; requesting more work but nothing more happens. generel settings allow 4 cpus to be used. maybe no work available but I don\'t get the corresponding message?
