Echoing this.

The 90 and 180 length updates were cited by Admin as being artificially set to manage the population of the game with the Drew nations included. While I recognize that they did not all CTE, it's more than fair to say the vast majority of those nations have. Given that, is there really a reason that we are still sitting on these artificially inflated update lengths? I'd definitely prefer reverting to the "normal" that we're supposed to have of 60/45, though even something like 90/60 wouldn't be unreasonable if we need to retain some extra processing time. It seems to me, though, that the present 180/90 has become wholly unnecessary.

Even before the Drewvasion update length was already below where it should've been.
Good news is that the total number of nations keeps dropping, albeit slowly.

I've checked the logs to see whether we're in a good enough place to be able to reduce the update duration again. Sorry, but no. I suspect we probably need to wait until it's below 200k nations again, but I'll keep checking regularly. Thanks for the heads-up.
