I've written a short report on the performance of the new Intermediate Format. The numbers show that the goals have been met. It's also interesting to look at from a general perspective. I'm sure there could be a lot more that I could have written and shown but at some point I had to warp it up. I hope I didn't leave out anything crucial.
