    Does Merging Frequently hurt?

    Does merging my comps every weekend hurt anything?

    Why would you want to merge machines on a regular basis? I'd have thought you'd only want to merge when you have a node that's no longer crunching and want to merge it's credits with one that is still crunching.

    Sounds kind of bovian to me. I like having separate nodes so it's easy to see if one has crashed or such.
