Message 157 - Posted: 23 Oct 2009, 16:48:13 UTC

hello

I have had a few tasks today which say waiting for memory. I checked the task manager and 1 project was taking 50% of the cpu only and the other 50% was system idle process so this should have been the other 50% for the other one like normal.

does anybody know why this happens

thanks

Change the following configuration:

Use at most
Enforced by version 5.8+ 90% of memory when computer is in use Use at most
Enforced by version 5.8+ 100% of memory when computer is not in use

This will make your second core work.

One WU is taking too much memory (more than defined in your prefs or smaller RAM total). If memory is free again this WU restarts from the last checkpoint.
