Albert: Even if there is such a thing as "true" dP/df can you really say that the results are conclusive given that in a small set you encountered at least 2 ouliers I know that std is not really at issue here but it needed to establish degree of confidence

Certainly, more data points are always better than fewer, but if you do fit the existing data points to a log(f+1) function, you actually get an amazing fit (i.e. low standard deviation). This would seem to indicate that while there is some uncertainty (either inherent in the benchmark itself, or due to "environmental" factors), the trends can be considered fairly reliable.
