Is there any resource that can help us taking an educated shot for X? - don't compute if battery temp is above ambient temp + X > - don't compute if battery temp is above > (starting battery temp) + X > Those approaches seem too vague. If the ambient temp is high or BOINC starts at an already high CPU temperature, we might see devices overheating anyway. ______________________________**_________________ > eah_android mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.aei.mpg.de/cgi-**bin/mailman/listinfo/eah_**android<http://lists.aei.mpg.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/eah_android> > _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
