Me saying a researcher that makes 5 day work units should be dumped from the project.

That's the point! It won't finish under any circumstance with an ETA of five days! How long did you let it run? You never mentioned that, or what project it was from, or what hardware you were running it on. The estimation in the client will not be accurate until you have completed a percent or two...

That's the point! It won't finish under any circumstance with an ETA of five days! That's wasted folding power!

Thanks, it worked! Now I can contribute again.

The Folding Client desperately needs a reject-Project-Button: e.g. a project with an ETA of 5 days is just not feasible (less in a timeframe of 6 days), now it blocks my GPU for any reasonable project for another 6 days.
