Good, more information; thanks Manuel.  I tried restarting the program, 
and that reset the time back to around my minimum.  That wouldn't help 
for animations, but it's good to know that that works, and I don't need 
to restart my whole computer to get that effect.  I still would like to 
know what's going on within the program that would cause that, but that 
would require insider information, it would seem.
