Is there a way to adjust the Resource share of exisiting projects?

Like boost SETI@HOME to a higher percent?  Or decrease
ClimatePrediction.net to a lower percent?

TIA

Just go to your accounts and set the Resource Share as you wish.  Its not a
percentage, the default is 100.  If you have three projects on one computer
and they are all set to 100 each will receive 1/3 of the crunching time.  
If a project runs out of wu's then the other projects get more time.  You
may want to adjust your cache to a lower value so wu's can get done before
the deadline.  The projects tend to be independant of one another so you
can run past the deadlines if not careful.  E@H has reportedly fixed this
on their server.

"The Resource Share is an allocation by you of the processing power of you
computer to be applied towards the project. This setting is not a
percentage. If you are only doing work for one project it does not matter
what the value is in this setting. When you join your second and subsequent
projects this value and the value in the other project's preferences are
totaled up and then used to create a proportion that indicates the amount
of time to be allocated to that project.

See the glossary for more details of how the resource share and Resource
Debt are used to allocate resources to the projects. I will just give a few
simple examples here.

If we join 2 projects and have both resource share settings at 100, then:

Project "A" gets 50%
Project "B" gets 50%

If we join 3 projects and have all resource share settings at 100, then:

Project "A" gets 33%
Project "B" gets 33%
Project "C" gets 33%

If we join 4 projects and have all resource share settings at 100, then:

Project "A" gets 25%
Project "B" gets 25%
Project "C" gets 25%
Project "D" gets 25%

And so on ?

If we join 4 projects and have:

Project "A" at 400, and
Project "B" at 300, and
Project "C" at 200, and
Project "D" at 100, and

then:

Project "A" gets 40%
Project "B" gets 30%
Project "C" gets 20%
Project "D" gets 10% "
