3) Message boards : Number crunching : new workunit limit (Message 7016) Posted 30 Nov 2008 by Dorphas Post: i guess i will now have to find another project to crunch. i really don't want to crunch seti anymore. all this waiting for work and the new lower 8 wu limits means, based on the past few days, over 1/3rd of the day my fleet will be idle waiting for something to do..esp when the time often goes to 2 hrs and 3 hrs before the server is even contacted again. milkyway has become too hands on lately for me. oh well, it was fun and enjoyable while it lasted... best of luck to everyone.........
