Not that anybody on any occasion has any introduced any statistically
significant data generated under controlled circumstances. It's just a
bunch of anecdotal hand-waving at the moment. BTW, I don't disbelieve
that this could be a significant optimization; but if these engineers
were working for me, and walked into my office asking for non-conformant
subsetting and didn't have some quantitative data to back up their
suspicions, they'd be bouncing out of the office pretty damn quick. -Tim
