Do I need to check the statement in my FAH configure screen, in order to get higher WU credits?

Since I get a lot of 46 credit WU's, I would like to get more credits for the time my CPU is working.

Only use the 'large WU' flag if you have at least 512 Mb (and realistically 1 Gb) of RAM memory, and can afford to let F@H basically take over most of the processing power of the PC in question.

I put the downstairs PC on the big WU's to see what happens. I don't usually use it very much, except for games.

I have my two fairly modern shrubbers on large WooHoos (512 and 1024 RAM. Pentium 4s). A lot are around 400-500 units but I get the occasional 1200 which massively boosts the old score.

You are doggedly keeping ahead of me Alpha! Continue the good work.
