How are you calculating the predictions? What do the Reigel and Cameron columns mean?

Also, it keeps refreshing the page. How long will it take to calculate a "final" prediction?

Riegel and Cameron are two methods for calculating race predictions. I have a short post about them on the blog, but a third party description offers a better explanation currently: http://www.runningforfitness.org/faq/rp

My worker ran out of memory, so sidekiq wasn't completing your predictions. I just restarted it and it looks like everything is caught up now. It normally should only refresh once and then your predictions would be ready.

This is the problem I keep having - my sidekiq worker runs out of memory and basically stops processing the queue.
