Crystal,
found this from the developer of Cosmology in Github, but for docker:
https://github.com/marius311/boinc2docker/issues/7
I helped Marius a bit years ago, when he decided to run camb_boinc2docker and planck_param_sim in a virtual environment and he helped to improve vboxwrapper.
Using vbox is different cake, because of the vdi-file and possible saved snapshot's etc.
Here we are testing a native application.

There is a lot of space between big enough and too big.
I scanned my last 60 results and the disk usage was between 1.14MB and 11.22MB (mostly around 2MB).
Good practice with BOINC is to set the rsc_disk_bound about ten times higher than the max you expect to be reached,
so 120000000 (114.44MB) would be a reasonable value for rsc_disk_bound for the native Theory application
to kill tasks eating disk space whilst writing extended logs and maybe even running endless. Now it is 1907.35MB
