Maximum for the BOINC client is 10 days
(Fine for quads/ not great for others as they may face completion deadlines)

Dualies fare well on 5 days

All others 2-3 days set is average

Yes you can

said by »www.worldcommunitygrid.o ··· ad=20394 :
Since the launch of the Rice project, there has been a great deal of debate about the merits of our policy of automatically opting members into new research projects when they are released.

After consideration, we have decided that prior to the next research project being launched, we will provide members the ability to choose whether they will automatically be opted into new projects or not. This option will be available from the My Grid -> My Projects page (which is then applied to each BOINC profile when it is saved) as well as on each BOINC profile (for those who want to customize the behavior for each profile individually).

This means that on the My Projects page and for each BOINC profile, members will be able select the following:

* Which projects you want to contribute to
* If no work is available from your selected project, then whether you want us to send you work from a different project
* If you want to be automatically signed up for new research projects
