After upgrading geth node to new Ropsten testnet node is not mining anymore, even though log messages seem it is trying to:

The miner address is the following:
https://ropsten.etherscan.io/address/0xf28dafbfeb41bf32869c9d498da0d651d0206ed4#mine
The command line to launch geth node is this one:
geth --testnet --rpc --rpcapi "db,eth,net,web3,personal" --mine --etherbase "0xf28dafbfeb41bf32869c9d498da0d651d0206ed4" --gasprice "1000000000" --bootnodes "enode://20c9ad97c081d63397d7b685a412227a40e23c8bdc6688c6f37e97cfbc22d2b4d1db1510d8f61e6a8866ad7f0e17c02b14182d37ea7c3c8b9c2683aeb6b733a1@52.169.14.227:30303,enode://6ce05930c72abc632c58e2e4324f7c7ea478cec0ed4fa2528982cf34483094e9cbc9216e7aa349691242576d552a2a56aaeae426c5303ded677ce455ba1acd9d@13.84.180.240:30303"
After 2 days mining the geth node got 1 block mined:
https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/653885
Before Ropsten the same node was mining at a rate of 2 blocks per hour, but now it mines at 1 block per day or even slower.
Any hint about what is happening? Thx!
