I'm going to be updating the assimilator/validator today, so there might be some work shortages. I'm putting some very limited redundancy into our particle swarm search, which should hopefully fix the problem we've been seeing with outliers messing up the search direction. I'll also be putting in a few changes which should help the work availability problem: first I'm raising the workunit queue to 20 (from 12) and I'll also be increasing the minimum number of available workunits on the server. I'll be starting up a couple new searches this afternoon, and have modified the awarded credit slightly upwards, so you might see a better RAC with these.
