This is curious. When I tried it, I got a reduction in bf from 6 to 4.5 or
something similar. I didn't measure percentages,but I would expect it to
be much more than 20% then of course.

I also tried a Sjeng with PVS against Sjeng without PVS once and the
PVS version won by a large margin. I wouldn't expect that from only 20%
speedup.

Stuff to investigate...
