Secondary attribute not affecting learning time?

I thought it used to be so that the secondary attribute of a skill also affected training time, has this changed in the last two years? I just installed some implants to improve the secondary attribute of the skill I am currently training, but it didn't seem to change the training time at all. How does this work now?

Attributes math

Are you sure you plugged in implant for correct attribute? Also it depends what implant you plugged in, +1 may have really small effect but it has some.

Ok, then it is probably just a problem with the info not being updated on screen, or me misreading something. Human error, I think they call it :)

Just wanted to make sure before buying any more implants. Thanks for your answer!

Have you tried pausing and restarting the queue?

This.

IIRC, the thing works like this. When you start training a skill the servers calculate (based on your attributes) the end date and time for the training and saves that to the database. The end of training is compared against that saved value. If something happens to your attributes before the end time any and all changes are not taken into consideration unless you pause and restart the training queue.

I recall reading a dev post to that effect many many moons ago.

And then I just realized that he would've needed to pause the training queue in order to plug in the implants in the first place. D'oh.

It maybe changed, but not by much?
