Hi everyone,

Following up on how well web-adjustable GPU usage factors work on projects like Einstein@Home and BitBOINC, I wanted to suggest adding a similar setting to SRBase.

Right now, running modern GPUs or high-core iGPUs on single-task limits often leads to underutilization unless users manually tinker with local app_config.xml files. Having a simple project preference slider on the website to control concurrent tasks per GPU would make hardware optimization so much more accessible for everyone.

Would it be possible to consider adding this feature to SRBase? It would be a fantastic quality-of-life upgrade for the project!

useless for us, both apps TF and ll-dc are using maximum GPU load, AMD/Intel with the help of some CPU usage

Having a web based slider will invite the uninitiated to mess with settings that will likely make things worse for their systems.
