HP-25 vs. SR-56 - HHC 2016 Follow-up

[Gene]

For those of you who were (un)fortunate enough to sit through this presentation at this year's HHC, I wanted to add a follow up I found from PPC V4N8P21.

Jim Davidson of the HP 25 Library Fame wrote an article about merged code. He reaches a rather astonishing conclusion

"95% of the time, 100 unmerged steps (GW- the SR-56) is better than 50 merged ones."

Of course there is a "all other things being equal" statement, which we know they are not. This is a merged vs. unmerged analysis only.
