In such cases it would *really* be useful, in addition of dumping 
80-100 raw numbers to summarize results and compare them for the 
reader, as i suspect you've done already? Please don't keep it a 
secret and don't force the reader to compare two tables with 80+ raw 
numbers! :-)

Something like:

" In short, block writes are 20% faster, block reads are 19.9% 
  faster, seeks got 16% faster. None of the operations got slower. "

Thanks,

	Ingo
