-The maximum number of jobs sent to a given host in a 24-hour period is N times NCPUS.
-Helps prevent hosts with download or application problems from returning lots of error results.
-Be sure to set it large enough that a host does not go idle in a 24-hour period,
-and can download enough work to keep it busy if disconnected from the net for a few days.

-If present, the daily job quota is augmented by this quantity
-times the number of CUDA devices.
+Each host has a field max_results_day in the interval [1 .. daily_result_quota];
+it's initially daily_result_quota, and is adjusted as the host sends good or bad results.
+The maximum number of jobs sent to a given host in a 24-hour period is MRD times (NCPUs + NCUDA*cuda_multiplier).

+Set daily_result_quota large enough that a host can download enough work
+to keep it busy if disconnected from the net for a few days.

+See the above.
+Set this to the speed ratio of an average CUDA device to an average CPU.
