There is no such paper. Do you see why I have a problem with Vincent? :) Makes things up. Then claims it is _my_ faulty memory or that I am lying? Even after I am _sure_ he has tried to find the supposed article since being challenged about it. But by all means, don't hold your breath until he admits he made it up. I'd like to continue to play against Rebel for a few more years. :) I think the actual person that is either a liar or suffering from some medical problem is Vincent... This is a case in point. He will _never_ give the citation since there never was such a paper. He will never produce a quote from a post of mine that says my approximate speedup formula works for _all_ numbers of CPUs since I have repeatedly said that it almost certainly will not (almost certainly because there is no data to prove or disprove it beyond 8 or 16 (very little 16 cpu data, but greater than zero). Of course he has said that I claimed it worked for _all_ numbers of processors, here in writing, so he will have to live with the echo of that for some time. :) I really do hope he would make his claims to the University here, however. We have a good legal staff here (since we are a large medical center also with almost 20,000 employees and the expected number of lawsuits about medical and personnel issues). They'd probably enjoy handling something so simple and straightforward. Perhaps after losing that he would attempt to throw _me_ out a 10th floor window as he threatened Omid a while back (I believe it was Omid. The threat was made, but perhaps a different name). That would be even _more_ fun, IMHO. But, as always, hot air is cheap. Vincent is full of hot air.
