Allow me to modify the "poorly" word to "less gracefully". It'll still perform well, but it would appear that the "drop off" in performance is sharper than with an impingement/micro-channel mix design, ala the White Water. I also have yet to properly quantify the extent of this effect, if even it's possible given my testing equipment. I'm just extrapolating on what I'm seeing.
