Merging medium (aka deleting a snapshot)'s ETA is way off! (#18335)
ModEdit; related ticket: #18335: Deleting a snapshot shows an incorrect estimated time (14714 days 5 hours)
Ever since I upgraded VirtualBox to v6.0.0 on a 2012 13.3" MacBook Pro (mac OS Sierra v10.12.6 and a Micron 500 GB SSD), deleting a recent snapshot shows ETAs way off as shown in my screen capture/shot as an example. The deleting of the old snapshot only took a few seconds and minutes. It seems the ETAs are way off in v6.0.0. Is anyone else noticing this too or just me?

No, it's not just you. See the report from the Beta forums: I estimate 14714 days to delete a snapshot.ant wrote:Is anyone else noticing this too or just me?

Huh? I thought it was already a ticket. Oh well. Better late than never I guess. Interesting that it happens in Windows hosts too. Thanks.socratis wrote:Finally somebody decided it was high time to open a ticket!

I didn't notice that part, thanks for bringing it up. I'm moving this to the "Using VirtualBox" section from "OSX Hosts" one...ant wrote:Interesting that it happens in Windows hosts too

Wow, a generic bug affecting all OS hosts. Ha. I thought it was a Mac OS thing.
