Title: 100% cpu usage trying to fix on rpi4
Post by: NudgeyNR on April 01, 2020, 01:57:52 PM

While running multiple instances of boinc for ithena (NCI) i made the suggested change https://root.ithena.net/usr/forum_thread.php?id=9#33 (https://root.ithena.net/usr/forum_thread.php?id=9#33) and it fixed the problem with the main boinc, but the other instances (wu's) still run at 100% with no progress. is there something i am missing? to make all instances of boinc run properly. This is on my RPI4. My kubuntu machine runs with no problems on all multiple boinc instances.

I've never attempted running multiple instances on my raspberry Pi's. Although as long as you didn't use to many I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't work.  In other words I got nothing :(

Does ithena still work OK on the original boinc instance Nudgey?

What about goofyXgrid,  does it run OK on the new instances or is it just ithena?

Hmm I wonder if with the added instances there might now be more copies of the boinc-client.service file as well?(One to start each instance perhaps?).  If so then each file would need to be patched as well.  Worth checking at least.

With the added line the original boinc instance (ithena) runs correctly and goofy runs correctly on all instances.

will look into whether there is multiple copies of the service.
