We are creating new WUs in half an hour. We are sorry for inconveniences. It will take a while to adapt to the growing number of participants/computers, while server's disc capacity is limited. |

it would help, if everybody would load just the amount of wus, which he can calculate at once + maybe the same amount for buffer. |

I normally use the default of 0.1 + 0.5 days for work units of normal length. That works fine with this project. |

But the reason for a buffer is to also reduce the load on the server so that it does not have to be accessed for each work unit. I don't know if that is an important consideration for the servers on this project or not, but that was the original idea I believe, in addition to giving you some cushion in case of a server outage of course. |

When reported you'll get new tasks up to the server limit 2/thread. |
