Sadly My list is not so impressive, I have chosen to focus what little attention (CPU Time) I have on a few specific projects. Initially I wanted to devote all of my spare cycles to cancer research, but believe it or not the cancer project actually started running out of available jobs from time to time. So I added the other two to pick up the occasional slack.

A lot of people don't do the Proteome folding WU's because they error out, so lots of them available. Keep an eye on them erroring though.

Honestly - 2500+ results in, and I've never had a problem... But I know how these things can be funny like that... certain specific combinations of hardware and software causing unpredictable behaviors.

Definitely. One of my 2600k's kept getting errors on shistosoma. I switched it over to proteome folding and another app, and now they're all clean. {shrug}

Some of my rigs have errored them, some don't. It's not stability dependent neither, some have been perfectly stable but won't run those WU's.
