Once again, surprise: BOINC doesn't execute any more tasks. The list of running or planned tasks is empty. No more tasks are being downloaded.

It took me a while to discover the reason: This time, my harddisk partition where the projects are stored was filled beyond my given limit of disk space to keep free.

I wish BOINC would list more obvious warnings in the "Messages" window if it detects conditions which prevent it from working at all.

There should be one that says something about 'disk space'. Boinc uses the Microsoft style of messages, obtuse and short but NOT to the point. Programmers often use 'computer' terms in messages that the ordinary user has no clue about.

Is there any way to see how much space the projects uses on the hard drive?

Never mind;
Just go to "Advanced View" and "Disk".
