Doh! You're right Vivek. I stand corrected. At the second cacheoff,
we weren't pushing quite as hard and /did/ show response times among the
best at the event...only beaten by the iMimic entry and Duane's Squid entry.

It's merely a matter of how hard you're pushing the box and the hit
ratio you're showing...If you push harder (for more throughput) response
times go up.
