Is the latest Prime95 weird or is it just me?

The first test is taking forever to complete. I had the version22 of it and it takes about 3-4 minutes to complete but the latest version has been running for 8 minutes now and it's not even complete?!

Nope it is not just you.....I think when they went to the 3 different test types I remember one of the versions taking that long...HOwever I still like to run the version 22 for the reasons you notice more bugs have crept up as they have tried to get too complicated??? I mean it was a simple cut and dry application that I knew what I was getting. I always use memtest to test the memory and other apps to test the vid card and overall system....Prime is still my main app for stressing a new oc'd system and to get my temps to the highest possible temperature under load...

Other then that the version 23's have been miserable in my opinion....

Well, time to revert back to the version 22.

Thanks for confirming that I'm not weird.
