    500,000 on CAS. I've been waiting a long time to get some work! It's out now, so 1M may have to wait another couple years

    Congrats all on your stones!

    CAS has had a burst of work recently. Expect that it'll start getting more frequent based on what the admins posted earlier in the year...

    Yes I do. BU accounts for nearly 97% of my credit and I've only ran it for 3 months compared to my other projects I've been running since 2009. On the flip side but not as exaggerated, are poor paying projects such as SETI (IMO) among others. I think most projects do a decent job of allotting credits for work done and we simply will have to live with the projects that come along like BU that distort the landscape.

    I ask, as I don't plan to do BU, but see how it has changed BOINC and I wonder if such a distortion due to the credits where people have to spend to get it, will alienate or scare off new crunchers.
