Permanent CPU affinitys?

[Lokken86]

Hi,

Just wondering if there was an easy way to do this? I have a small Burstcoin mining op going on that needs a bit of cpu power dedicated to it for scanning through the hard drives every few minutes. By default the program sets all cores active, however will happily run with just 1 or 2. So basically I want to set a specific amount, maybe 2 or 4 cores to run this optimally whilst using 8 for my games and the rest for everything else should I alt tab, go online etc I don't know how to do it without manually disabling cores every time I start a program.

project lasso

OR inside a batch file
PowerShell "get-process java | %% { $_.ProcessorAffinity=11 }

Powershell
get-process java | % { $_.ProcessorAffinity=11 }

Change java with process name & adapt processor affinity as necessary

ProcessorAffinity=1

Will assign only the first core to the Application in Question. Remember it’s a Binary value you’re computing so to figure out the Binary number to use, you must add it in your head or draw it out

0001 = 1 ( CPU 1)

0010 = 2 ( CPU 2)

0100 = 4 ( CPU 3 )

1000 = 8 ( CPU 4 )

Therefore if I want to assign Core 1 and 4 to the Application, Add up the Binary numbers ( 1000 (8d) ) and ( 0001) (1d) ) to get 9

then you could add to your batch to launch the program 7 change the affinity with 1 click

I think you meant "Process" Lasso but I tried it and it works great. Exactly what I needed thanks

Using the lasso. Runs in the background every time you boot up with the settings. Perfect.
