I'm running two instances of SatH on a 3Gig Hyper-Threading machine. After
SatH has been down so many times, I'm going to cache much more than the 4 I
usually have.

Anyway, what's a good cache size? (I got plenty of space.) Say like ... 110?
( = 16 wu's/day * 7 days :)



It is generally agreed that WUs older than 2 days on return are not
counted for the science, but you get credited for the result. As a
result I tend to cache 2 day's worth, and use SETI Queue to dish the WUs
out to the 3 PCs on my network.
Two of them are Intel P3s, one a dual. My biggest WU cruncher is a dual
2.8 Ghz Xeon, with HT enabled (4 instances of the CLI at the same time).
This little small holding produces 30 daily.

 Where on the Seti web site does it state the 2 day limit? I have never seen anything official about a 2 day limit.
