Hello,
There seems to be a constant shortage of units, is there anything you can do to increase the availability of work units.
Winter is here and my cat is getting cold.
Please, more units.

PS It's good to be back.

Plenty of other projects are looking for resources. Add some backup projects, with 0 resource share, and keep your cat warm!

Or if you prefer biology/medicine - you can always use folding@home.

Without more scientists, this cannot be increased overnight. Studies like this one: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/acs.jctc.7b00480 take lots of time and pushing the existing scientists harder is not going to solve anything.
