Since I am running BOINC in the office and we deal with Net business, I want to spare the network that's why I have set BOINC to connect once per day for an hour and have set the 'Additional work buffer' to 1 day and a half. I noticed some strange behaviour, though: BOINC downloaded about 10 WU for one of the projects and left the others without any work. I mean SETO@home got all the work, while Einstein@home and Rosetta had nothing. I am not counting Boincsimap and LHC@home, since they rarely have data.
How can I prevent this from happening?

Hm, I guess it might have something to do with the Astropulse SETI unit, which takes over 60 hours so far ;) Clearly, BOINC has felt obliged to SETI for working only one unit ;)
