Processing WU Out of Order

(moderation:
WUs are being queued for me at a constant rate of 3 in advance. This is more than is required as they extra WUs sit for about 2 days before I can process them. The requests for more work seem to be inaccurate.
Also, WU are being completed out of order. I currently have a WU from 2/21 that is not being worked on. Since this one arrived, two other more recent WUs have been completed. The WU that began this morning was received on 2/23.

They should be picked up in order of deadline.

Doug, all is OK. If you want less work queued on your system, and you have an 'always on' internet connection, ie DSL or cable modem, you can go to 'Your Account' and modify project preferences to 'connect to internet every 0.1 days'. This will reduce the amount of work queued on your system. Or if you want more work queued, increase the number.
