I'm trying to run both GPUGRID and POEM@HOME on a single-GPU system. It's currently set to a 90:10 resource share split so I believe GPUGRID should be running most of the time. However, POEM@HOME seems to grab the GPU and just won't let it go.

Has anyone got multiple BOINC projects to play nicely? How is it done?

Yes. By waiting, with endless patience.

Or, if you want to hurry it along, read client configuration (when the BOINC server comes back up - they should be getting into the lab soon, approaching 9am in Berkeley).

Set an option for <rec_half_life_days> somewhere below the default of 10 days - well below.

Thanks Richard. I set rec_half_life_days to 0.01 and they seem to be sharing now.
