Pentium 4 3GHz running Windows XP, 187 hours CPU time for 35% completed, 344 hours to completion. Is this normal or should I abort?

Those times are not unusual. There is more about this and other aspects of the project here in the BOINCWiki.

There are some tips for speeding things up. One is not to use it as a screensaver, as it takes processing time even when you are not looking at it, another is to set your general preferences to leave the application in memory.
