 |

For the next month I am only going to shrub one project PrimeGrid@Home. I will only shrub for that project. Each month I will just shrub for that project, until I have basically gone through all the stable ones with constant work. Hopefully this plan works.

That almost sounds sensible... 
What happened?  Did you forget to take your medication??

Well I have been bouncing this idea around for quite some time. I am going to see how it goes for the first few months and then make a decision after that. I want to see how my RAC changes from project to project.

I have often wondered if some projects give more credits per hour of crunching. Please let us know if you see any significant difference.

Yes, there is a wild difference in various project's interpretation of what constitutes "reasonable" credit, roughly a 6:1 range at the moment (3x+1 down to WCG).
MilkyWay have just announced that they're going to halve their credit allocation to bring it more into line with SETI.
There's a full cross-project comparison at BOINCstats.

Ugh, there goes Milky Way. I'm going to have to find another project when they do that or reallocate my shrub %.
