@deskjet, do you have enough RAM? (8 GB per running task, but you have certainly seen this in this thread already.)
In general, when I prepare a bunker for GPU tasks, I first suspend GPU computing, then [Allow new tasks], see to it that the respective quantity of tasks finished downloading, then suspend networking, then resume GPU computing. (This process can be automated and typically works out well unattended then.)
Amicable Numbers has tasks which may be quick or slow, but it also responds to work requests quickly and downloads quickly. Therefore these two extra steps of suspending GPU computing before and resuming after aren't necessary.
But more importantly: The server grants only 20 tasks in progress to a host, per GPU. (E.g., 60 tasks in progress for a triple GPU computer.) So the answer to your question of how many days to set the buffer size to: This doesn't matter all that much at Amicable Numbers, unless you had a very slow GPU. You won't get more than these 20 per GPU even with a large work buffer setting.
This is similar to a limit which SETI@home used to have. Their limit on tasks in progress was OK for computers with slow GPUs, but not for ones with modern GPUs. In addition, SETI@home had regular maintenance periods during which no new work could be fetched. Therefore, a few SETI@home users modified their boinc clients to show an inflated number of GPUs present when requesting work at the SETI server. This allowed them to have a reasonable amount of tasks in progress.
The required modification is arcane but not all that hard to do. The mentioned circle of SETI@home users were open about that they used this workaround, but kept the precise recipe to themselves, because inexperienced/ uncaring/ malicious users might make bad use of it.
