Rank is rather hopeless as a metric. I dedicate 1% of computing power to
some projects and I am in the top few. On others I dedicate 33% of
computing power and I am not in the top thousand.

Solution: Give up on cross-project credit parity. It's an impossible
goal. QCN anyone? If cross-project comparison is needed, do it via
rank. As long as the credits within each project are stable, that
works fine.
