When you say "over all demos" do you mean just over the PS or PDF depending on which you are testing? I'm a bit confused because the single examples you show show between a 5 and 20 fold improvement, but the overall number is less than 2 fold. So I wonder if you are including the other backend driver PNG, SVG, etc... output.... Just curious.
