I have Seti and Einstein running on about 15 PC's

I have set Seti to 90% and Einstein to 10%

Seti WU's need ~ 3-7 hours to complete and Einstein about 15hours or so / WU

Now i would like to know:

What project gives me more credits ? Seti or Einstein ?

In the time i run 1 Einstein WU i can run 4-5 Seti WU's - does that mean i can get 4-5 more credits from Seti ?

Does Einstein give more credit for 1 WU ?

thanks

Yes!

For me it's ~30 credits/WU @Seti, and ~80 credits/WU @Einstein.
Seti ~4h, Einstein ~10h here @work, @home it's ~3 to ~9

The (very good) manual for Boinc is the BOINC Powered Projects Documentation by Paul D. Buck and the FAQ therein.

For information regarding Credits look here!

Your computers should claim about the same amount of credit per day for any BOINC project. There are still some problems in this area though so to actually determine which one produces more per day you would have to run and compare each one for each of your computers.

Different validation procedures can have an impact on what project grants the most credit as well.
