What kind of dmax do you get with the Z3100?

Frankly, I was initially planning on just buying a PK cart and 
keeping Eboni as the MK in a 1400 "UT14-HP" setup.  I'd love to get a 
higher dmax, and if there is evidence HP has made a breakthrough 
there also, I might be tempted.

While there has been some noise about what a great dmax the 3-MK 
approach gets on the 1800, the truth is that it's usually the same as 
what I can get on the 1400 with a rip and a single K.  Arches HP is 
the major exception I've dealt with.
