Agfa 17, question to Ed Buffaloe

You say that your recommended tomes for Plus-X, at EI 100, developed in Agfa 17 1:1 at 72º F is 20 minutes.

I haven't tried Plus-X yet in Agfa 17, but the times for Efke films and Ilford Pan F+ isn't much longer than with D-76. I have used Agfa 17 1+1 at 20ºC for 9 minutes with Efke R 50 and Ilford Pan F+, and found it to be right. The recommeded times for same films in D-76 is 8 and 8 ½ minutes.

Are you really sure that 20 minutes is correct? At 20ºC the times would be 21-22 min.
