WU taking 22 days on a Pentium Dual Core? [GUI ETA Bug]

I have a laptop with a Pentium Dual Core running Vista.

It is working on P2527_Am22-43 GROMACS core. I'm on frame 939/2000 ... It is taking about 23 minutes per frame, it figures out to be 22 days to finish. It got to around 880 very quickly ... Why is it taking so long? This doesn't seem right...

I'm new, so maybe I'm missing something...

Well, I closed the application & restarted it... Now it says I've done 1260 of 2000 ... So I guess the GUI is just giving me bad info?

I'd say one of two things.

First when you first start up the application be it after restarting your computer or starting F@H it gives a really long estimated time of completetion until it finishes a few frames.

Or it was just giving you bad info. I once had F@H CPU version give me 1250/150 frames for some reason. But after I restarted the computer everything was back to normal.

Either way if it's working now I wouldn't worry about it.

The GUI client is known is give horribly inaccurate ETAs until a few frames have been completed. Glad it got sorted out.
