I'm running BOINC 7.0.64 with Seti and Einstein as projects. I have an ATI Radeon HD 5870 graphics card so both Seti and Einstein run GPU workunits. I added SETI a few months ago but had Einstein running for much longer and had a RAC somewhere above 6000. After I added Seti it seemed that SETI hogged all resources and eventually my Einstein RAC got down to around 850 while SETI climbed to above 4000. Since then I have been suspending SETI for several days to let Einstein catch up. My question is, should I have to do this manually to give them both a fair shake, or is there a setting I can change that helps balance out the time awarded to each project? I have read the posts on priority but didn't really understand what they were trying to accomplish. Thanks in advance.

You can try to adjust 'Resource share':
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/prefs.php?subset=project
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/prefs.php?subset=project
(SETI@home is offline at the moment)

E.g. (if you have for SETI@home 'Resource share' 100) increase the 'Resource share' for Einstein@Home to 200 or 500 or 1000 ...
