Heinz,i think that possible speedups in AXIS when hot spots are identified and
fixed should be anywhere in between 50-1000% (speedup defined as above)
and i would say that this is a salary increase i would like to see and
not just 0.08% :-)
The numbers you provided show 8%. Your trick is nice, in the argumentation with my boss I calculate the increase I want as a percentage of the total salary volume of the company. This tiny bit he has to happily agree with :-)
the would be a valid approach to calculate your salary increase if you were the only employee of the company (the same as if Vector operations were the only operations done by AXIS) - but i think we should stop building analogies here, they do not help much but confuse issues.
i wanted to make sure that it is clear what can be expected performance gains as i had an impression that you talked about improving *overall* AXIS performance so in this case i really would not call this _trick_ (it suggests it is not valid) but an estimation of overall performance gains (and i probably overestimated possible speedup anyway ...).
thanks,
