Quick correction: These last two 3.91 and 3.97 on the left column are in *seconds* not
milliseconds. By mistake I added an extra 'm'. Sorry about that.

I just noticed that I haven't fully removed the 'we' occurrences. Patches 7 and 8 had
their commit messages rewritten and I mistakenly re-introduced remnants of 'we'. I will
have it fixed for (v2) albeit I'll still wait for comments on this series before following up.
