"Maintain enough tasks to keep busy for at least XX days"
Computing preferences

"Minimum work buffer" or "Connect about every" (wording changes between BOINC versions)
Local preferences

Set it on the web or locally - use the place you used before (the web settings will be ignored if you ever clicked OK on local Preferences)
