Right, but that means there must be some PCs that take > 8 seconds. Has... anyone ever seen one? In the past two decades? (I'm time bounding the question only because I know nascent PCs did lots of weird stuff.)
It's not like there are that many PC SKUs out there (or motherboard SKUs for custom stuff). And even if there are two weird models, how useful is only that data?
