Rosetta@home unusable

I have run into numerous issues with Rosetta@home
- Required CPU severely unestimated - may be virtualized to another architecture. At 100% CPU usage it takes 30 to 60 seconds to report 1 second of CPU. System CPU usage is much higher than when other applications are running (about 1/3 of CPU utilization).
- Unable to parse the documented format of an app-info.xml file, and appears unable to apply an increase in CPU count.
- Automatically resets the no tasks settings and downloads more tasks.
- Requested memory resources are extremely overestimated limiting running tasks to 1.
- Ignores setting disabling VirtualBox applications.

My system is running Ubuntu 22.04 on an Intel Core i3-2100 CPU using the packaged BOINC and Virtualbox software. Other vbox applications seem to run correctly.
