That is very interesting and surprising.  High temperature visco-elastic creep.  What is the TOT?  I wouldn’t have thought it high enough; but in any case, it suggests that intergranular stress corrosion of the SS could also be ocurring.  It may be good to inspect the hottest portions of that pipe fairly frequently.
