It does seem like a fair bit of work to calculate unchanging values.  Since
this is really only an order-ofmagnitude sanity check anyway, I wonder if
this part of the verifier isn't working too hard to arrive at the
best-possible upper bound. My 64-bit divide was dumb & broken, but wouldn't
~(dblocks/inopb) get us close enough with a lot less work?
