I particularly liked the line "the University of Toronto has realized
exponential cost savings".  Hard to imagine how they intend
"exponential" to apply.

'' "Other storage vendors were more than 3x what we ultimately
negotiated with Nexenta and yet the functionality was basically the
same." ''

That operation seems to be a single multiplication by a constant
factor.
