The scenario I wanted to tackle:
When I am working on my PC I want to share a bit of my compute for the foldingathome project. But when I am idling I would like to share much more compute with the foldingathome project.
The frontend and backend would not allow this to be configured, so I added the configuration in both projects (Backend PR).
I am normally used to angular and typescript, so I used AI to assist me with the task. The code looks correct to me. I tested it locally by adding a button in the frontend that would toggle a mock idle state in the backend.
The idea for this solution was adding 2 flags in the configuration that mimics the old behavior:
cpus_idle
gpus_idle
and 1 new flag that controls which resources are taken at idle time:
different_idle_resources
