The figures, for anyone assembling their own picture. If you are comparing against somebody else’s result, check that you are comparing the same measurement taken the same way. Most of the apparent contradictions in these threads dissolve at that step.

A narrower follow-up, since the general answer is now clear:

How long did you give it before you decided it was working?

Pushing back on Dr.PathRoch here. This treats a plausible mechanism as a demonstrated one. Plausible is where you start looking, not where you stop.

If somebody has the primary source to hand I would rather cite it than paraphrase it.

True, and it depends on a baseline nobody has stated. Without knowing where someone started, the same number can be an excellent result or a disappointing one.

This is exactly what I could not find anywhere else. Adding it to my notes with a link back to this thread.
