Dunno. Maybe has to do with the power-saving mode you are in. Can't help with that.

yeah you could even rin 20 folding and 20 seti@home at one time...though I don't recommend it....
was that the first tim it took so long for a few frames?

Assuming they are the big WU's, that works out to roughly 18.4615384615384615384615384615385 per day.

Look in scrlg.txt for "dynamic steps required". When I say big one, I mean like the _mimic that has 500000. That's worth a 5 in the stats. A small one nowadays would be Alzheimer2 with 200000 steps, worth a 2. I think we may be getting still bigger ones in the future.

That is weird. A WU has 100 steps. It'll probably get sorted out when it's sent to to server.... If it ever gets there.
Why don't you Contr-C and then start f@h again. See what happens.

Second thought.
Presuming you've still got that crazy big number, I think you've been handed a corrupt WU. I've never had one but here's what I've read you should do: Contr-C, delete work.dat and project.dat files. That will dump the bad WU. Restart f@h and it will go get a new one.
You've got another blue star. You should move up on the list pretty fast because there are a lot of slowpokes and non-producers ahead of you.
Honk when you pass me.
