I know it has been raise before but I will raise it again, do we have a problem Houston.....;o)
Seti@Home, it is really about the science, isn’t it!!

I have approx. 4 1/2 hrs before I get to my first "mega" WU. They show 15:38 on my machine.

Has anyone completed one of these yet? Do they actually take as long as BOINC thinks they will, or are they normal WUs parading around in wolves clothing?

Duration for completion is normal.

Shown Time To Completion: 27:30
Real crunching time: 2:50

It could be then what has been mentioned in some other threads.

Maybe this is the dev teams way of imposing some cache control on those who have large cache settings until they get a better handle on the WU supply.
