Benchmarked? Or hard-coded?

My question, therefore, is how the data presented on this page was collated for the SL Wiki:
- Is it something hard-coded somewhere? (one presumes that a snippet can be extracted from the viewer's open-source code showing the built-in values)
- If not: then, what measurements have been made, using which techniques, to come up with the numbers presented here?
- And, of course, are these still reproductible, within a small margin of error? There used to be quite a lot of QA templates here on the SL Wiki; was there ever one checklist to establish a procedure to calculate if those speeds are within the expected margin of error?
Because otherwise I cannot account for the huge discrepancy between Mona's tests and the values presented here...
