There's 1 'gotcha': The task wont unload LAIM on or off, as long as it has not reached the first checkpoint, and some projects run checkpointless tasks, which is why I've got <checkpoint_debug> on in the cc_config.xml. Avid users of BOINCTasks rely on this utility as a tracker. That tool prints the number of checkpoints accumulated, since the last time the client was started, on BT was.
