I get a lot of errors (in S@A, Boinc 4.09) like
"Maximum memory exhausted" or "Maximum disk usage exceeded".

The problem is, I have plenty of both.

Looking at the client_prefs.xml, I see lines line:
33554422.000000
500000.000000

What units are these supposed to be in? And who determines these? Are these somehow related to my preferences stating "0.5 GB is the maximum, thank you"? Is Linux-BOINC comparing bytes and kilobytes and thus deciding "OH, S@H is over the limit, I shall kill it"?
