On most of my hosts the limit is 300 WU/day per core, however on one machine it is 101 WU/day per core

I'm not sure why this one has a lower limit, perhaps the app treats 64 bit machines differently?

Anyway, I was just curious if this is something that could be easily remedied, as I am hitting the 404 WU quota fairly quickly, even with other projects attached to this machine.

I saw a lot of compute errors, with one example having:

Outcome Client error
Client state Compute error
Exit status -185 (0xffffffffffffff47)
...
...
<core_client_version>6.2.14</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[
<message>
Can't get shared memory segment name: shmget() failed
</message>
]]>

And errored WU's- whatever the reason, generally- lower a host's limit.

hmm, it had the problem before the errors, not sure why so many errors popping up all of a sudden, that's a recent development.
