3x isn't 11x.  And DE to JIT isn't another 3.5x.  So where did all this
performance come from?  

The fact that it's one of the fastest machines in the world is actually
a shocker, and it's certainly NOT the perception in the world at large.

Thought exercise: I'm running a 2002 model 270 at V5R1.  When I move to
a model 520 or a model 810 at V5R3, will I see an 11-fold increase in
performance?  If so, I will name my next child after you.  Heck, if it's
just 5x, I'll name a sandwich after you.
