Where is the boundary between 'slow' and 'fast' speeds...?

Anyway, ignoring Einstein, you have the same issue with a simple ol'
static triangle...
x^2 + y^2 =3D e^2, x=3D1, y=3D1  e=3Droot2.
What will be your arbitary degree of calculation of root2?

Wait, if we use a triangle (pretty basic), we ARE using Einstein...
hah!!!
