 LWN short experiment
 --------------------
 
-LWN did `an experiment`_ with parsing "git log" and got a speedup from 63s to
-21s using PyPy over CPython.
+LWN has a tool they use for parsing "git log"'s output in order to do analysis
+on the contributors to the Linux kernel. Simply by switching to PyPy they were
+able to get a 3x speedup, from 63 seconds to 21 seconds, compared to CPython.
 
 "In other ways, PyPy is ready for prime time; it implements the (Python 2.x) 
language faithfully, and it is fast."

 MyHDL
 -----
 
-MyHDL got speed up by 6-12x according to their `performance page`_, putting
-it in the same league as other HDL implementations.
+MyHDL got a speed up by 6-12x, on various benchmarks, according to their
+`performance page`_, putting it in the same league as other HDL 
implementations.
 
 "By simply changing the Python interpreter, MyHDL is playing in the same 
league as Verilog and VHDL simulators. This is a remarkable achievement, given 
that Python's power stays completely available. There is no reason anymore to 
avoid MyHDL because of performance concerns."
