I am running the "Search for Wilson primes" task of the "ibercivis" project. The BOINC manager has downloaded a large number of tasks for this project (there are currently 21 tasks awaiting processing, while my system can only handle 4 tasks simultaneously). So I guess a lot of these WUs will timeout before being processed. How can I limit the number of tasks the BOINC manager downloads into the "task waiting for processing queue"? I think having one WU in the queue per core should be enough. How can I reduce the number of tasks / WUs loaded into the queue?
