Anyway, that aside, does anyone understand the difference between the "days of work" on the web page
versus the boinc setting? Specifically, I mean the setting at http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/ =>
"Preferences" => "Computing Preferences" => "Maintain enough work for an additional ? days" versus
"Boinc 6.6.31" => "Advanced" => "Preferences" => "Network usage" => "Additional work buffer ?.??
days" ? Which one controls how much work you actually get?

They are the same thing. It gets the "Additional work buffer" value
from the web page one but if you put a value in "Additional work
buffer" it overrides the value from the web page.
