OK. I'm using the console version not the graphical client. It asks if you only want to process deadlineless WU's, but doesn't say anything about batch processing. I'll try it out when I get to a good stopping point.
Thanks
I posted the instructions for the graphical version because that's what I assumed most people are using. For the console version:
Run config
Yes to "Change advanced options"
Yes to "Request WUs w/o deadlines"
Yes to "Minimize networking -- get and submit work in batches"
I don't think that higher points are due to running in batches, but due to using deadlineless WUs. I use batch processing just in case I can't connect to the internet.
