Package: boinc-client Version: 7.6.22+dfsg-3 Severity: minor Since upgrading to boinc-client 7.6.22+dfsg-3 last night (when it hit testing), I've observed it to log "No protocol specified" once a second, except when suspended, per the log excerpt below. As far as I can tell, it otherwise continues to work fine, but these messages are getting to be a nuisance.
Could you please take a look? Thanks!

When systems are truly busy, e.g. because of too many active # scientific applications started by the boinc client, there is a chance for # the boinc client not to be granted sufficient opportunity to check for # scientific applications to be alive and make the (wrong) decision to # terminate the scientific app. This is particularly an issue with many # apps started in parallel on modern multi-core systems and extra overheads # for the download and uploads of files with the project servers. Another # concern is the latency for scientific applications to communicate with the # graphics card, which should be low. All such values should be set and # controled from within the BOINC client. The Debian init script also sets # extra constrains via chrt on real time performance and via ionice on # I/O performance, which is beyond the regular BOINC client. It then was # too easy to use that code to also constrain minimal nice levels. We still # think about how to best distinguish GPU applications from regular apps.
