I just lost a 5,000,000-step, 11-day WU because I wanted to take one machine off F@H without getting assigned a new WU. I was stopping and starting, trying to get stopped at the right place, and all of a sudden it said "checksum error" and started over with frame 1 of the same job. I just thought it wouldn't be nice to leave a dangling WU with no crunching performed on it.

Use the -oneunit console client configuration option.

SlackPawn, which WU have s 5 million steps? The largest WU I have been crunching was a 2.500.000 steps on the total of 35 times. This was Project 1273. p1273_proj1273_A21ext_d15_99phi. Whish processor is you using? I use an Athlon 64 3200+

The WU is described as: p638_L939_K12M_ext Run: 50 (Clone 16, Gen 41)

The reason it took 11 days is it was running on a Athlon 1050 Mhz, and the machine was also running 2 other processes (SOB & DNET)

There's another one running right now with 4,762,500 steps. It's the same protein but a different "run" number.
