General observation

(moderation:
I have noticed that without changing anything that it slowly takes longer and longer time to process a WU, from just over 2.6k secs to over 4.1k secs. The WUs my computer has been working on during this has only been z1_1052 WUs.
Has anybody else noticed a similar trend or should I look for the cause elsewhere?

I did a cursory examination of your results and think you'll find the real CPU time used is pretty consistent at around 3200 seconds (at least on the 58 or so still showing).
The variation in the reported CPU time is an effect from using Trux' Calibrating Client, and is normal.

Thanks for the explanation :)
There is another pattern, that actually gives away that it is the calibrating client that has caused this effect. The WU before the one reported at 2.6k secs is actually the first one that the client has adjusted the claim for.

Trux usually takes about 30 WUs before the credit calibration stabilizes,
you should see credit claims around 35 cobblestones now.
