1) Message boards : Number crunching : Increase the report deadline (Message 34226) Posted 5 Dec 2009 by Mike Matsco Post: So, this is not a project I should be a part of until I am running all my machines with newer video cards? That's a shame. But, I understand that the project is run on limited funds and everything that you guys have said does make sense. I am going to postpone my participation until my PC's are upgraded. Thanks for the information. And keep up the work. I will see y'all later. (Hopefully soon)

2) Message boards : Number crunching : Increase the report deadline (Message 34216) Posted 4 Dec 2009 by Mike Matsco Post: Why is the deadline for the work units only 48 hours? I'm running 3 projects with a resource share of 33.3% each and the only way I can a unit in on time is by leaving the PC on 24/7. And that's on my core2duo machines, it is impossible for my p4 machines. On my Core2Duo a workunit takes 16 hours but split up with the other projects it takes 48 hours. Just enough time, provided I don't do anything CPU intensive on the computer. The other projects at least give the work unit 2 weeks before making the result invalid. Is there a reason for the VERY short deadline?
