Package: boinc-client Version: 5.4.9-1+rmh Severity: wishlist Would be nice if boinc took advantage of SMP in machines that support it. Given that the algorithms from projects are already as much parallelised as possible, this would need to happen at the client level.
It'd just need to fork a new cruncher for as many processors as the system has (obtainable with sysconf (_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN)). I suppose some redessign is necessary as well. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-1-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Versions of packages boinc-client depends on: ii adduser 3.87 Add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libc6-i386 2.3.6-15 GNU C Library: 32bit shared librar ii libcomerr2 1.39-1 common error description library ii libcurl3 7.15.4-1 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-5 GCC support library ii libidn11 0.5.18-2 GNU libidn library, implementation ii libkrb53 1.4.3-7 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8b-2 SSL shared libraries ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-5 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii lsb-base 3.1-10 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii python2.4 2.4.3-7 An interactive high-level object-o ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-11 compression library - runtime boinc-client recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
