(suspended applications will consume swap space if 'yes') yes Switch between applications every (recommended: 60 minutes) 60 minutes Confirm before connecting to Internet? (matters only if you use a modem) no Disconnect when done? (matters only if you use a modem) no Connect to network about every 1 days On multiprocessors, use at most 2 processors Write to disk at most every 1200 seconds Limits on disk space and memory used by BOINC: Use no more than 4 GB Leave at least 0.01 GB Use no more than 80% of total space Use no more than 80% of total virtual memory Limits on network bandwidth used by BOINC: Maximum download rate: no limit Maximum upload rate: no limit Semper Eadem So long Paul, it has been a hell of a ride.
