Following are the answers to your questions:
1. Rate: Both maximum rate and enforced rate were changed to 5 QPS. I was 
only using default queue and set 20 QPS on it.
2. Task: All my tasks run on frontends
3. Admin Log: Yes, I am the only developer uploading changes and there is 
no activity in admin log when the setting was changed.

In addition, when I tried to change the setting to 100 QPS this morning in 
order to drain the queue, it was always changed back to 5 QPS about 5 
minutes later after the deployment. Finally I found a workaround to create 
another queue with the same setting which stopped the madness of 
automatically configuration change.

Actually task queue has been causing service interruption to me in the past 
2 days. Yesterday, the default queue suddenly stopped accepting any task 
with name, which I had to workaround in order to bring my service back to 
normal state. I was too tired to write a post here about the issue after I 
finished live site support yesterday. Since you are you investigating, 
would you please also look into this issue as well? I really need the 
feature to add task with name so that I can avoid duplicated task 
processing.
