It's close enough for me.  Who knows how they measure these things.
My measurement was "time scanadf", basically.  It was done actually
feeding the papers through the scanner before scanadf exited, so it's
not entirely unimaginable that there is a bit of overhead in actually
transferring and writing the scans to disk.
