Hi... Is there a way to detach from CPDN - after finishing a WU and before download of a new WU - so that CPDN is not loosing the WU and then getting a later finish time. In other words can I detach from the project or at least make sure it doesn't get more work to do, when I finish working on my resent WU?

Reason for change is that I wan't to do S@H and when einstein@home opens I wan't to do that to...

Hi there,

theoretically, when you decrease 'Use no more than' amount of diskspace BOINC can use, there will be no more space for another WU.

Thanks, id appears to have been working. Now I won't waste any WU there will wait a whole year before anyone can run them again - when I change to einstein@home as soon as it gets official / public.

You may also reconsider and decide to share your resources among Einstien and CPDN for 50:50% of whatever you feel approprite.... :-)

I might do that, as of now, I'm sharing 20/80 between CPDN and S@h, so I might consider doing the same when einstein opens, since S@h appears to have some bugs still, considered the fact that they have actually been officially open since 21 of July or some around that date - also because I feel it necessary to now the climate in the future - I guess since einstein is not yet open to public and I've some 200 hours to go (approximately 50 days), I'll have some time to consider what to do.

Thanks again, you've been very helpfull.
