Is it possible to increase the daily quota again?
One of my machines always runs out since it only gets the small WU's and the server reports: reached daily quota of 288 results.
My machine can do 330 of the small ones a day so it sits idle for 2.5h a day. Seems like a waste!
Can you guys bump it up or give us some big WU's again,
Pete

Daily Quota !!

First off, S5R1 is running down to the end, so mostly only small units are left.

Next, the outages may be partially because everyone is doing smaller units and hitting the servers harder than ever, causing issues with RAID cards unable to handle the load. So you getting more may actually cause more issues.

Why not do a backup project? There are a ton of good projects out there that would love your processing power. I know not everyone wants to do more than one project, but if you are worried about your electric bill going down, or your machines cooling off for a couple hours a day, it's a good way to keep those processors warm.

LOL!! That's some of the best reasons I've yet heard for other projects. :-)

Cheers, Mike.

You are going absolutly wrong: Einstein@home is the backup project - it can count however only to 4 (cores).

Ok makes sense since my Dual Cores get 144 max,
any trick to make Einstein accept 8 Cores and get the 576 WU's?

You can use Boinc Studio to control your computers and set it to use 8 CPU's even if you don't have a quad or octo CPU.
