+ * on_frac: the fraction of total time this host runs the client
+ * connected_frac: of the time this host runs the client,
+ the fraction it is connected to the Internet.
+ * active_frac: of the time this host runs the client,
+ the fraction it is enabled to use CPU
+ * gpu_active_frac: of the time this host runs the client,
+ the fraction it is enabled to use GPU (always <= active_frac).
+
+For periods of activity and inactivity are exponentially distributed.
+The mean of the activity periods can be specified with on_lambda etc.;
+the default is 1 hour.
