Sorry for the late reply, Bill, but you were snoozing when they taught
logarithms in high school weren't you?

Jumping from 8 bits to 32 bits (1:16mm) is the same ratio as would be
jumping from 32 bits to 48 bits (also, 1:16mm).

Going from 32 bits to 128 bits is 1:79228162514264337593543950336 which
is not even remotely the same ratio.
