I would rather have a definition that is too simplistic than a definition that is useless. Your definition does not distinguish between software that can do 8× as much when you give it 10× as much power, and software that can do 20× as much when you give it 10× as much power. Only the later can be considered for it quality of performance. Regards, -- Nicolas George
