It's not a problem, but I noticed that Genefer 22 (OCLcudaGFNWR) takes a full thread on Linux but hardly any CPU support in Windows. The Windows app requests 0.602 CPU and Linux 0.23 CPU (I'm aware the OS takes what it needs). I'm new to this app, run times initially don't look like they're going to be much different but I'm curious why there's such a difference in CPU use.

D'oh!! I didn't even notice that option.

For anyone else having this problem, or just not paying attention like me, the setting is at the upper left of the page.

Thanks.

I played with this briefly but BOINC did not detect any GPU, only two CPUs. Did I miss anything?
