I have heard that the new crockpots "low setting" is much hotter than the old ones to allow for shorter cooking times. However, I cannot find this published anywhere, but have heard from many people that the low setting seems to boil quickly now.
It is, but the reason I've heard is the old liability angle. The old original recipes called for 8 hours on most recipes and they could run up to 12 hours without harm. Today CP's will overcook in 6 if you aren't careful.
