I'm noticing an odd behavior in BOINC Manager. Perhaps this is always the case and I'm only noticing it now because the Amicable task completion times are usually less than 60 seconds, often less than 30 seconds, on my PC.

There is always another task ready to start. As soon as the running task reaches 100% the next task and its elapsed timer starts. I timed the new running task with a stopwatch. BOINC reported 38 seconds to finish. But the stopwatch timed 108 seconds!

The stopwatch time accurately reflects my task throughput over many hours.

Like I said, I haven't noticed this in any other project. Is anyone else seeing this?

Thanks
