No, that's fine. wc_secs is what you add to NOW() to get wallclock to
it shouldn't change, or at least very rarely. I thought from your
earlier email that it was always zero, which would be odd.

That's reassuring.

And is that equal to zero? If not, what exactly is the problem? I
think I've got confused about what's going wrong.
