I read about the speed others process their SETI packets, and I think there may be something wrong with my system.

I have a XP1800+ CPU, 256 MB RAM, 1 GB Swapfile, running Windows XP SP1 and SETI@Home 3.08 with graphics as screensaver. My system uses about 30 hours CPU-time pr. packet, isn't that a bit too long?
