Nearly every time when I maximize Boinc, I can read "Wating for Memory" behind some different projects.

Fact is that I don`t use GPU and set the preferences to use memory on 100% and this message is still running.

What can I do?

Version: 6.10.58
Thanks for help

How much memory does the machine have?

How many BOINC applications are running concurrently?

How much memory do the waiting tasks need?

Computer sind nicht alles im Leben. (Kleiner Scherz)

Which projects are waiting for memory? Different applications have different requirements.

6GB RAM DDR3-1333


Projects running:


Einstein@home

Seti@home

Eon2

SZTaki Desktop Grid

ABC@Home

boincsimap

When I take a look at the TaskManager I can see that at maximun 2GB are in use.

and set the preferences

set which preferences? Those online on a project, or the local preferences?
The local preferences override the web-based preferences.

So just try this:
BOINC Manager->Advanced->Preferences->Clear.

If that fixes it, it was a wrong preference setting in the local preferences.
If this still leaves it waiting for memory, do try a reboot of the system first. Rebooting will usually fix whatever is ailing sick computers as it resets all kinds of hardware.

And if it didn't fix things, could you please post your BOINC start-up messages so we have a lot more information to deal with? See Requesting Help for more information.

I have found a solution.


I`ve just changed the project list and now its running without any problems.

I tried to do as you said, but that did not help.

But thanks for that.
