 Users are granted BOINC credits as a measure of their contribution . The credit granted for each workunit is the number of decoys produced for that workunit multiplied by the average claimed credit for the decoys submitted by all computer hosts for that workunit . This custom system was designed to address significant differences between credit granted to users with the standard BOINC client and an optimized BOINC client , and credit differences between users running Rosetta @ home on Windows and Linux operating systems . The amount of credit granted per second of CPU work is lower for Rosetta @ home than most other BOINC projects . Rosetta @ home is thirteenth out of over 40 BOINC projects in terms of total credit .
