I think they made a mistake by slowing down the processing though, unless
they enforce the upgrade very quickly.  A user's stats are generally quite
important to him, and a 40% increase in process time is very significant.
For me, if I'm running it 24/7, it makes a difference of 2.5 work units a
week.  A less scrupulous user would be likely to hold off the upgrade for as
long as possible, just to give his stats a boost over the other users...
