My Athlon 1.4GHz system normally does a WU in about 6:10 - 6:30 hours.

The last WU took 53:26.

I hate that.

Please remind me again why a WU would take that long?

I also have strange results on my machine lately. Normally (my first 1,500
WUs), my system would crunch sweet WUs in 3 hours, normal WUs in 3:45 and
VLAR WUs in 4:00. For 1 month now, the completion of sweet WUs takes 3:45,
VLARs take around 4:50. Strangely, "normal" AR WUs take up to 6 hours!!
Check my SetiQ chart:

I've checked CPU usage in TaskManager, it's absolutely normal (~99%). And
since _CPU_ time is measured, even high CPU usage of other task should not
influence _CPU_ time. It just seems the CLI has become up to 50% slower. And
no, I don't use 3.08, I'm still using CLI 3.03.
I've tried closing all other processes, but there has been no improvement.

I'm running the CLI on another machine (P4 2.66 @ 2.84) which returns
absolutely normal results.

Anyone having similar experiences? Any ideas what could be the cause?

The strange system:
P4-M 2.0
512 MB
XP Pro
CLI 3.03
