Workflow Statistics Differ from Publications #7

The properties of the generated tasks do not always match the numbers published in [1].

For instance, the TmpltBank task type has a mean runtime of 20 seconds in the generator vs. 500 seconds in the publication. Also, some of the workflow's task types as published in the paper do not appear in the generator.

This is true and I have the same question too. plus, for some types there is a processing rate for a task which is not clear how it is computed. could you please tell me if you figure out the reason.
