The Breco efficiency depends on the run period, I think. At least it will be different between Run1/2 and Run4. > And taking Run 3 into account, this looks > even worse. 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. > I am confused - I thought we were supposed to have SP5 and SP6 > roughly in the ratio of Run1-3 to Run4.

The ratio and the statement about the cuts (convoluted by the Breco efficiency).
