I thought a doubling was worth about a stone, but of course this depends
a lot on the particular program and setup.   Maybe 5X is closer to 1
stones as you say and not 2 stones.

The MoGo team has said that MoGo wins 62% of its games against a baseline version when the processing power doubles. That's about half a stone (if you assume you can generalize to human opponents).
