Well they should still get boosted (under the new conditions) and according
to my tests that does work. Anything in particular you're worried about?

So in terms of throughput I see similar results with EAS and CAS+sugov.
I'm happy including numbers in the cover letter for future versions, too.
So far my intuition was that nobody would care enough to include them
(as long as it generally still works).

Kind Regards,
Christian
