Confusingly different sync durations

Hello Proxmox fans,

I'm confused by the different time durations given for the PBS Sync Jobs.
EDIT: And as I can see now, it's just as different with the verify jobs.
The Proxmox remots are version 9.1 and the PBS is version: 4.1.7

For all sync jobs, I'm seeing very different time estimates for the duration between the information in the overview bar and the "Show Log" window.

The times in the overview bar seem to be correct, but the duration displayed in the "Show Log" window appears to be incorrect and much too high.


In the following post, ggoller writes that there should also be an "End Time" field in the task status (the second screenshot)...?
Start Time AND End Time

Can anyone tell me what's wrong there?


Here are the first and last lines of the log file "Output" and the associated "Status"

Greetings from Northern Hesse
