Yes and no.

Yes, there was a change, but it happened some time ago.  January of 
this year in fact.  It used to be that we didn't charge for packet 
size, but back in January, we opted to start charging for packet size 
as well as an increase in packet size would reflect an increase in 
traffic.

We didn't want to punish users who were already running measurements 
though, so we grandfathered these in, which is why your old measurement 
cost you only 3cr per result, but your new one costs 31.25cr per 
result.  The details of the pricing scheme can be found on the credits 
documentation page:

I hope that helps explain things :-)
