this has been discussed before and while i don't remember the details, i
remember that bob said "i'd be worried if it was below 90%". numbers reported
here in the past used to be between 90 and 95% IIRC. it depends heavily on the
position though, so it's hard to compare numbers between engines if they don't
look at the same positions.
