On my computer, which is allocated about 300 AP WUs at a time, in late September Boinc was running AP WUs due in late October. Then when October 1 came it seemingly panicked and stopped doing anything but processing AP WUs due October 17. That behavior was useful when we could download thousands of WUs, but I think it should be questioned now.
