It doesn't happen that often on the 24 thread machine but it DOES happen if too many WU complete at the same time.

There are 2 fixes:
1. Run 2 BOINC clients.
2. SUSPEND all but 6-8 WU. After one minute RESUME 6-8 more WU. One minute later RESUME the rest.

This is a VERY common problem on the higher thread count machines.
I've been running it for several days now and the wus are spread, 3 or 4 finishing at any one time. I'm thinking this may not be my problem, though I'll keep an eye on it. I did drop down to 23 threads and have had no more computational errors. I'll see if that holds up overnight.
