Yup, credit is a mess that (IMHO) should be controlled more carefully by Boinc developers

Answering to your Q, project admins decide the amount of credit/hour given on each project... some uses higher credit to attract new ppl, or whether "science" advantages crunching for that project are not really clair, or wether so-called "public results" generated by Boinc won't be so public at all...

There's a credit comparison here on BoincStats: http://boincstats.com/stats/project_cpcs.php - If you take for instance Seti@home as the real "unit" credit (being Boinc developpers so close to that project, it should be taken as an standart measure), you can see: any figure above 1 will grant higer credit than the "standart"

Cheers
