SBUs

[Bruce Dubbs]

As I review the book, I see quite a variation in SBU precision.  In some 
cases  the value is specified as one significant digit (e.g. ed -> 
0.02).  In other cases the value is specified as four significant digits
(e.g. kdemultimedia 13.17).

These values really overspecify the point and the high precision is a 
bit misleading.  I am presenting a suggestion for discussion:

SBUs less then 0.1 should be specified as:
  Estimated build time: < 0.1 SBU
SBUs between 9.9 and 0.1 (inclusive) should be rounded to one decimal:
  Estimated build time: 6.7 SBU
SBUs greater than 10 should be rounded to whole numbers:
  Estimated build time: 12 SBU
Comments?
