Agent Settings Dialog - Build Helper->CPU Availability Page

The Build Helper->CPU Availability page is used to define applications the Agent should ignore when calculating CPU availability. This is useful when IncrediBuild is installed alongside other applications that utilize idle CPU time (such as the SETI@home project).

CPU Availability Calculation

Processes specified in this list will be ignored when IncrediBuild evaluates the Agent's current availability. To configure IncrediBuild to run alongside an application that uses idle CPU time, all processes related to this application should be added to this list.

The following buttons are available:
Add... - Opens a selection list with all processes currently running in the system.
Modify... - Opens a selection list with all processes currently running in the system, and replaces the currently selected process with the newly selected process.
Remove - Removes the currently selected process from the list.
Remove All - Clears the entire process list's contents.

Notes

  • Ignored Processes can also be configured centrally for all Agents in the system. This is done using the Coordinator settings dialog in the Coordinator application.
  • When using this feature, it is recommended to maintain a relatively high Compiler Task Process Priority setting to ensure that tasks assigned to this Agent will receive sufficient CPU time.
