Hi,
my computer has just been assigned more than 240 tasks (about 2% of what's currently available, my queue is set to 0.33) . Not that it can't finish them in time, and I'm not complaining about the amount as such.
But wouldn't it be better in beta testing to send them to as many different computers as possible to test different hardware/OS combinations?
I would suggest limiting the number of concurrent tasks per computer in beta testing.

Set the ResourceShare to 0 (zero), than your client will only fetch 1 WU / core
