Each time I suspend BOINC to do a reboot due to installation of software, the status shows suspended, the amount of cpu time stops, but the countdown clock to completion keeps on going. Is this a RAH flaw or a Boinc Flaw?

I tested the suspend function (v.6.2.19) and the clocks stopped correctly.

Are Rosetta threads consuming CPU time?

graphics tab is blocked out, cpu time is stopped, only the time to completion goes on. when i come back from reboot and open boinc then that timer is stopped.

kind of odd

See this thread at the BOINC dev forums. It's a bug, Trac ticket was raised, a fix has been submitted though not widely tested. I imagine version 6.6.x won't have this bug but ya never know.
