SETI and Eintein work fine, but

even though I have 19 GIGabytes free.

And the numbers don't change when I change my parameters for free space or increas the actual amount of space available. Also, rosetta runs fine on a smaller machine.

What is the trick?

Just to be sure: you know that there are three values to adjust?
Those are mine:
Use at most 2 GB disk space 
Leave at least 0.05 GB disk space free 
Use at most 50% of total disk space
