Presently four very long running climateprediction.net tasks with deadlines in late 2017 are running, while many World Community Grid tasks with deadlines in the next few days are not given precedence. I'm concerned about missing deadlines. Does BOINC never miss deadlines? I'd rather just set it and forget it, and not have to manually suspend tasks in order to get everything finished on time. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jason

Thanks, SekeRob! From now on I'll let BOINC do it's thing and trust it'll get everything done.
