Is there a risk of the scientists getting impatient?

I thought LHC@home had lots of CPU power." Then they may lose patience with us. ? ? Probably not... but why risk it? I say double the quota. 16 work units a day.

But I still wanted them to know that there are hosts that are able to do at least 12 times at much work as they are doing now. It would be stupid not to use these resources when LHC will be going full speed.
