The SHX78DC5N is a bar-handle 800 Series build at 42 dBA and 16 place settings with CrystalDry, differing from its SHX78DM sibling in its cycle and option set. On any 800 Series, the cycle list is long enough that two options in particular get missed: Sanitize, which raises the final rinse temperature and lengthens the cycle considerably, and Extra Dry, which does the same for the drying phase. An owner who reports the machine has suddenly started taking four hours has very often left one of those switched on.
