From what I read, there has been some speculation that project 8101 favours the faster memory, which would explain why it has been reported 62xx perform better than 61xx on this project.
I found out that my 1600 MHz RAM was running at 1333 MHz (DDR Auto in BIOS) on my LGA 2011 rig . I paused client just after 73% completion, rebooted, forced DDR3 1600 in BIOS, and resumed from checkpoint the same 8101 WU that was previously engaged at 1333 MHz.
So I can provide some data for the same WU at two different RAM speed:
DDR3 1333 MHz 73 frames observed TPF 23min10s 156k PPD
DDR3 1600 MHz 17 frames observed TPF 21min45s 171k PPD
Conclusion: 6% decrease on TPF yielding a 10% PPD increase.
