Hello,
I really like this project and I will dedicate some of my (small) resources to it soon.
Unfortunately, by looking at the "Server status" project I can see that this project is very unlucky with regards to the number of users and active hosts. It has a lot of tasks "ready to send" and less than 70 active users per day, that is really a low number compared to other projects, even very recent projects like mlc@home, who has more than 250 users every day even though is much newer than QuChemPedia.
I think this was caused by the fact that for a lot of time this project was a difficult one: you had very long workunits, many of these were invalid, not a lot of communication on the forum and so on.
Now the situation is changed: the short workunits are the majority and they are very easy to crunch as you do not have to "babysit" them or risk to have hours and hours of elaboration not rewarded with a single credit. Still there are some invalid workunits (that's the nature of the science behind this project, not a fault) but less impacting than before as workunits are shorter.
Most of all, there is more communication on the forum, you announced very interesting scientific results. This project looks really promising in terms of science and for the impact it can have on quantum chemistry (I am very curious to learn more about your "unique tool" that will be unveiled in 2021/2022), it is one of the most interesting projects regarding science and everything is open access.

So I wonder, are you ok with your current resources or do you need more?
Because if you think that a boost in computing power could speed up your research, then I think there are few things that can be done, first of all to contact the main teams and propose a big challenge on this project. Second, you could write new and nice-looking pages to describe more the science and the people working on this project.

Hie,

Thanks for your kind words. We are at the moment finishing an article describing the diversity generated with BOINC in the first phase of this project.
I am also in a rush with a lot of (remote) teaching. I also thought about some youtube videos that could describe our project in a pedagogical way (always the lecturer ;D)
It is a project for january...
I will ask for the advice of the cruncher then.
