It doesn't look like he's getting -9 overflow errors. When I look at his results, I'm seeing a -131 which I've never seen before. The BOINC FAQ Service says that the result file is too big and will not be uploaded and to report the behavior here on the forum, but I have no advice.

Can you list any associated error messages from your log file? (..\BOINC\stdoutdae.txt)

Looking at the source code, when that error occurs the actual filesize and its size limit are supposed to printed somewhere. (Sorry I don't know where, I'm not at all familiar with BOINC code.)
