I wonder if it would be much trouble to add info on how much memory a host has, where the host's CPU info is. Would be helpful for managing a host as some projects have memory requirements.

Thanks, really appreciate BAM and BOINCStats.

I'm not an expert on BOINC or on this web site, but I don't think BOINC reports the amount of memory in your computer to the projects you are working on. I do know that BOINCstats only compiles data received from the projects, not directly from your BOINC client, so if the projects don't have your memory size, BOINCstats can't get it.

It is reported to the project and it is even included in the XML files. But (there is always a but), it's not accurate.

Just some numbers I pulled out of an XML file:
261681152b = 249.55mb
3220287488b = 3071.10mb
3219398656b = 3070.25mb

I can guestimate what the value should be, but the guestimate could be wrong.

What's not accurate in your example, Willy?

Ok, very accurate. But not the actual memory size I think.

Could be the that all of the systems I picked use a part of the main memory for onboard graphics.

Willy, this would be a very useful feature to have! If the memory reported isn't the actual memory, maybe it is the amount of memory available to BOINC based on the user's preferences. Even that would be useful because that is what the project will be requiring to determine whether to send work units or not.

Willy,

It wouldn't have to be 100% accurate, I think, whatever the host is reporting would be good enough.

Well, it was just a thought anyway.

Thanks!
