Estimated times are way off

so i looked and most people with incorrect time estimates, have the opposite problem. the estimated time (for example) may say 10min, when in reality it takes 15…

mine says 1min 40 sec, and its done in 33sec.
another file says 7m 17sec, and completion time was 3 min 10sec

any fixes would be great!
