Great !

My suggestion is that it do more continual checkpoint(s)
at each "boinc_fraction_done" too

*When no greater than boinc general preference
Write to disk at most every 10.0 seconds

To help fix the 1% bug,
caused by app swap to another app before checkpoint,
removing from ram -:)

I believe I asked for this 38 days ago in this thread when I said "If they set up a clock trigger with fine resolution, rather than updating % done with an event trigger, they might better locate the bug. I.E update a thousand times/wu and if you start seeing 4,5,and 6% bugs you'd know where (approximately) the lockup was occurring."

hope they find it now.
