Collatz: Clearing up the Backlog (12/05/2013)

In order to clear up the backlog of half a million workunits that the BOINC daemons felt the need to create when the database was unresponsive, a number of them have been redesignated as solo_collatz workunits. Those workunits that were originally mini_collatz workunits will run in 1/8th the time and receive 1/8th the credit. Those workunits that were originally collatz workunits are the same size as the solo_collatz workunits and will take the normal time to crunch and receive the normal solo_collatz credit.
