I am currently crunching a task (30+ hours and counting...)
Suddenly the elapsed time went from ~30 hours back to 17 hours or so, and the progress bar dropped from 99% back to 92%.
I checked the flies in the corresponding slot but it does not seemed to lose any data:
stderr: the q keeps increasing with no significant gap

Two questions:
1) Is that normal? If not is it the problem of my computer or the app itself?
2) Will the cpu time/credits be probably calculated in the final result?
