    The only place I've seen instructions for extending 
development time are for Microdol-X when diluted 1:3 and 
used in an 8oz tank. Kodak recommends extending time by one 
minute over the time for a 16oz tank. For the full strength 
developer no such increase is required.  24 exposures might 
require a little less extension but I think this is a 
special case.
