Shouldn't be.

The Breco efficiency depends on the run period, I think. At least it 
will be different between Run1/2 and Run4.

What do you mean by worse? How do you do this? In general there is one 
problem with the signal MC splitted up into SP5/SP6. SP5 is always 
Run1/2/3. Only the generic comes by each Runperiod seperately.
I can split up the signal MC also, if this is needed for better 
comparisions.

Yes, this should be correct. The ratio and the statement about the cuts 
(convoluted by the Breco efficiency).

Cheers,
