Lots of ZZZ's again.

Is it just me or does the EON client ZZZ alot?
TeAm AnandTech
It does. That is why I run another project along side it and use a program called SetPriority.

(Thanks again Jeff for this wonderful tool!)
I set the thread priority of Eon to -2 (default is -15) and it will use 100% of the processor. When it Zzzz's my other project (Distributed Particle Accelerator Design) will pick up the slack.
Edit:
I just checked the CPU times under task manager.
Eon 40:15:37
DPAD 58:47:49
So even with Eon getting the higher priority setting my secondary project gets more CPU time due to Eon's Zzzz's
Is it s still behaving badly?
Seem to be running better here.

Looks better now, but it was really bad :sleepy: :sleepy: :sleepy:

Does the thread priority need to be reset every time the computer reboots?Originally posted by Longbow

Yes, but you might want to check out this message where some others are writing scripts to do it.

I rarely reboot so it isn't really an issue for me.
Edit: Some people are also running multiple instances of Eon to try and battle the Zzzz's, but I find this just leaves you with multiple sleeping clients.
There is also this program you can get for only $35.

It does so much more, but
Change process priority and
Make Process Priority Settings Persistent
are nice features applicable to this thread.
Thanks for the info, Taskinfo is just what I need.

ZZZs and more ZZZs

Sorry that I have not responded earlier!
The system have been caught in a really bad state for the last week or so. I have tried to resolve the problem by restarting the server in a state prior to the current. Each time I have done this the system somehow always get back to the troublesome point as it was removed from. Therefore I have decided to let the simulation run for like 5-8 days eventhough it is in a bad state and just hope that it will get out somehow.
Cheers Andreas
This must be real annoying having to restart the server(s) all the time.
Randy
Server has been almost completly down for several hours.
Randy
please the server
my monitors have gone all boring

you like looking at a load of Zzzzz's
that gorram server.
It's OK again now, but it's gone yo-yo on us maybe half a dozen times today. 2-3 hours of running like a bat, then solid ZZZ's for a half hour or better.

I am a new e0n user and all I'm getting is this; Unable to open CuEMTCli3.dll for writing.
Seems like e0n does a lot of zzzzz's, maybe this isn't the project for me.
Anyone else have this problem again?
I really like participating, but if this keeps happening, I will terminate and start something else.
Sounds like it's not running in the proper directory. If you're starting it from a desktop icon, check the Properties and make sure that the "Start In" bit names the actual full path to client.exe.
Likewise, if it's starting from the Startup folder or somewhere else in the Start Menu, be sure the "Start In" is set correctly.

Since I am not PC savey, could you tell me where to find what I need to fix.
When I downloaded the software, it worked great, the it went to zzzz's. Do we know why?
But if you will tell me where to look and what to do I will try to fix it.
TIA
alpha-fruit, I've sent you a Private Message. I think we can work this out pretty easily.
HOME: A physical construct for keeping rain off your computers.
In fact, I just re-installed the Windows client and think I know the problem.
When Eon installs under Windows, it makes an entry in the Startup program group. It incorrectly sets the "Start In" location to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 when it should be "C:\Program Files\Eon", complete WITH the enclosing quotes. Consequently, whenever the program starts, it can't find its required files and just spins its wheels.
To correct this, left-click on Start, Programs, Startup, then right-click on Eon, then left-click on Properties. In the box that says Start in, delete what's there and type in "C:\Program Files\Eon" with the quotes. You could even copy and paste it in. Click OK. Then run the program.
To run it immediately, just go back to Start, Programs, Startup, and double-click on Eon. Should work a treat.
I'll send a copy of this conversation to Graeme and nudge him toward fixing the installer. Good work for uncovering a glitch!

Erm, hiccuped a bit here, but it's fine now. But hey, no rush for you to come back...

Or maybe it's discriminating against Brits. You didn't unplug the trans-Atlantic cable did you?

Now that I look again at the stats, Fozz, I think you ought to take off maybe a week. Maybe two!
