If I can\'t get this running soon I will give up and go elsewhere! ID: 23401 · Reply Quote

If you have this too high, you are getting too much SETI work for Climate to be allowed to work. Mine is set for .5. That setting tells your machine how many days of works to have on hand. If you get a bunch of small SETI results to crunch, which have a 4-5 day expiration, you will easily be in EDF mode all the time. ID: 23402 · Reply Quote

I think I\'ll just quit & go back to onlt SETI thanx for the help. Bye Dave ID: 23408 · Reply Quote
