Re-booting didn't help and now it's 40 min per % and a mind boggling 41 PPD - phew! What's the benchmark supposed to be on these?

What else is running on that machine? Are you running other FAH clients and/or something else heavy? What priorities are assigned to the active tasks?

[John_Weatherman]

I have Norton Internet Security and Windows XP SP3, but Task Manager shows only the core running. I've left it on overnight when I know nothing else is running and it clocks in at a steady 40 mins per % during the night, so it's something odd with the core or probably the WU.
Looking at another machine which is also using core b4, it's priority is at "below normal" whereas this machine is at "low". Otherwise the core details seem to be the same in the logs.
