I have been running the African Rainfall Project on 3 machines (12 cores total) for some time now (alongside OpenPandemic) and I never seem at have more ARP Wu’s running on each machine at a time. So, I have been wondering if the WU’s are rationed 1 to a machine?

Check your device profile, I believe they're automatically limited to one per machine. You can manually increase that number, however.

If you plan to increase the number of ARP1 WUs you would like to run simultaneously, it is recommended that you do not allocate more than 50% of the machine CPU cores to ARP1, otherwise you would experience some bad performance.

It would be good if the device profile note would indicate the default of 1 per host OR "Also see Projects Limits section under Custom Profile", as this is now multiple times in recent weeks the issue has cropped up. Maybe a Help item with 'how to' would serve better.
