Been running over a year with no problems. Now all of the sudden I see I'm only running 1 task! Normal settings are 50%CPU, so normally 4 tasks on my i7 4771. I try and force sync and nothing. I reboot and it's still running 1 task. So I reset the Project itself... This time I get 3 new tasks. I change CPU to 100%CPU and still just 3 tasks. Can't get it back to 4 tasks using 50%CPU.

Thoughts?

If you only have three tasks after the project reset, then that's as many as she can run. You'll have to wait for a next scheduler contact/request for work.
Why not pass by on https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=8600 to see what more information we'd like to be able to help better.
