	Hi everyone, My work units seem to be taking twice as long since Jan. 2nd. They've gone from an average of 33,000 run time seconds to about 60,000 run time seconds. Has anyone else noticed this or is it isolated to my computer? Vincent JG

	No such effect is visible on my machines. I see from your task list that you suffered a couple of computation errors (tasks 1696789, 1697963) on 2nd. January, the run time transition point. Have you rebooted your computer since then? Some people have reported that errors can leave their graphics cards running at half speed until reset by a power cycle, which would explain your figures.

	In one case (on one of my PCs) a driver crash corrupted the display-driver! The result was a significant slowdown. I had to to reinstall the driver (cleanup with DriverSweeper).

	Thanks Richard, that solved the problem.
