No, IIRC, although when I aborted the WU and updated the project to turn it in, I believe it got another WU then. In fact, I had loaded 7.1.1 on a different quad yesterday (one that doesn't use a GPU) and when I flipped over to look at it (they're on the same KVM so share the screen and keyboard but each has it's own mouse), it had gotten work for 2 projects that were suspended on it. Einstein and Primegrid were the projects, IIRC. I unsuspended them since they didn't have large shares anyway. On the C2D machine which has a GPU I finally had to remove the Constellation project. It was still getting work while it was suspended and I had set the resource share to 0.001 BTW, on the 3 test machines (2 Vista32 and 1 Vista64) I downloaded boinc 7.1.1 on each machine. I didn't move it between machines because I didn't have shares setup for that. Each machine downloaded it's own separate copy of 7.1.1 so even if one machine somehow got a bad copy, the other machines shouldn't have had the same problem. The 3rd test machine (the only one running 64 bit Vista) didn't have any projects on it that were suspended or NNW so it didn't show the work fetch problem although it does seem to have tried to make sure it had at least one job from each project (see next paragraph). 7.1.1 is behaving differently on work fetch. 7.0.64 seemed to just grab all the work it needed from the current priority project. It seems to me like 7.1.1 is trying to get at least one work unit from each project it is attached to. ISTR David Anderson saying something about the new work fetch simulator on the boinc alpha website doing that for some reason so I guess 7.1.1 has the same logic in it.
