Oh, one other thing I've noticed with BOINC 5.4.9 is that the values in the To Competion column seem to be considerably more accurate that before. That means you can tighten up your Connect to Server value. I can't see much if any reason to go beyond 2.0-3.0 for this under normal circumstances. For me, I see this as the best improvement in 5.4.9.

As for "managing" your WUs, I've seen some discussion about that and I've tried some experimenting. With 5.4.9, I don't see that it really gains you that much. Typically, you will want to crunch the WU that has the closest due date first. Given how 5.4.9 will automatically switch to "older" WUs, you have to leave that WU suspended to prevent that. There you then risk running out of work or crunching on a new WU that you got because you had no WU to run. Besides, how practical can it be to try to managing WUs if you have multiple devices?
