On Windows platforms, if no value is specified here or in
the /etc/resolv.conf file, the list of DNS name servers are
taken from the Windows registry, both static and dynamic DHCP
configurations are supported.

There seem to be two types of WU - 100,000 and 1 million 'turns'. For me on a 2.4 P4 the short WUs take one hour, long ones 10 hours.

Bear in mind that some short WUs end very quickly (seconds) if the modelled beam crashes in the wall.

2 day buffer should be fine. You may be limited by quota before you fill it though.
