your claimed credit is so high because your benchmarks are impossibly high. Are you using an 'optimised' version of BOINC?

The credit given is a reflection of the actual work done, so a computer running an optimised version of BOINC (which will give inflated benchmarks) gets should get the same credit as one running the stock version of BOINC, seeing as they both do the same amount of work (it's rosetta that does the work - BOINC is the management program so adding SSE2 support etc to BOINC makes no difference to the amount of work done by Rosetta.)
