Do MSC cases (National Benefits Center) have really long processing times compared to the others?

Looking at both the USCIS processing times pages, and the visapro ones, it looks like the National Benefits Center has insane processing times, compared to the others. The EAD cases being handled are those from December 30th, 2016, whereas the others are touching March cases.

 

Is this normal?

USCIS is processing the EAD cases from February and already some of the March EAD cases.

I got a status update today on my EAD application today and I submitted the paperwork in the last week of February.

 

That website hasn'tbeen updated in a while...

I've always gotten updates and notices from them quickly. My case went from RFE sent to them, which was 200+ pages of financial rubbish, to ready for interview in less than a week
