I may not be totally correct here, but I think with each next generation there is more time spent. Is it possible your clients are on a high generation number?
Quote:
if you have reached generation 100, you will receive (50 structures) * SQRT(gen.100) = 50 * 10 = 500 points for uploading those 50 structures, and so forth. Fractions are truncated downwards. This scheme is implemented because more time is spent trying to complete each fold in the higher generations. Thus they are visibly slower than the randomly produced generation zero. The higher scoring will also encourage users to reach generation 250.
