Maybe someone can comment on my workload on one of my workstations.  I
came home to find that I had run out of WU's and then restarted BOINC
to get some more work.  Now JBSWU_CMD is reporting estimated
completion times 8 times greater than usual.  Does this mean I am
crunching one of the "super" WU's?  Also, for some reason the
workstation is not reporting its HOST ID like it used to do. The other
workstation is reporting its ID as usual. Finally, what does anyone
think of this snippet from stdoutdae.txt.  What's going on with the
"overcommitted" entry.  Does the estimated completion time now 8 times
greater mean that I can't get anymore WU's other than the single WU I
successfully donwloaded and now am crunching?  Should I bump up the
number of days between connections to get more work?
