I have a Raspberry Pi 2 running Rasbian (Debian). BOINC (Einstein@home) is running on all four cores, however it won't use more than 67% of the processor. Is there a setting somewhere where I can tell it to use more of the processor?

Thanks!

Thank you for the quick reply. I was following your guide when I got to the section with the config. I added "<cpu_usage_limit>100</cpu_usage_limit>" to the global prefs override and it fixed the problem. Thank you very much for your assistance. You were quite helpful.
