Yes, we've already gotten reports from other people that boinc and aMule for some reason don't get along very well. No idea though, who the culprit is and what the problem is.

i run boinc and amule 2.1.3 on my imac (intel). first i also had prolmes with stability of amule but now it works ok. it seems to me that there is a problem with prozessor usage or distribution of the 2 programs. i configured boinc to only use 1 prozessor and only 90% of it. now the crashes are gone. before this setting amule sometimes just stopped responding. no crash with error msg but spinning beach ball in amule. when i quit boinc then it took some minutes and amule responded again (most of the time). so for me it seems that boinc doesn't realize that there is another process needing cpu-time and so takes it all.
