This is the first time I see someone complaining about too many credits/s. Usually they complain about too few.

You just can't please some people. And it irritates me when someone complains "project A doesn't pay like project B ", blah blah blah. It gets tedious after a while. Every project has its own agenda. If you don't like it, move on. Simple fix.

For me runtime is almost equal to CPU time (Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5620 @ 2.40GHz http://albert.phys.uwm.edu/results.php?hostid=5406):
And I'm over 200 k credits/day in Albert, which is (a little) crazy for CPU-only crunching. I was barely able to hit 25 k credits/day in Leiden@home lately.

Stop whinning about the credits, and paricularly stop comparing Albert with other projects. Leave it be. Each project does things their own way. Go tell Leiden@Home they don't pay enough if you want to whine about something. Sheesh!

If you don't like the credits here (for whatever reason) take your computers somewhere else. I am quite happy with them.
