Forgot to react to the above. Yes, they never made it because I
believe due to the exact reason you mentioned above. Also California
set up different experiments IIRC and it shows that the problem didn;t
fully disappear with his approach. But maybe yours will work better
(at least it's not the first time I have seen it on different hardware
according to people's contributions).
