Say a program runs and results in $T_1 = 157s$ then is modified and runs in $T_2 = 16s$.
What is the correct way to display (in %):
- How much faster is $T_2$ than $T_1$?
- How much of an increase is the completion time of $T_2$ than $T_1$?
I imagine them to be read as:
- $T_2$ is __% faster than $T_1$
- $T_2$ was an increase of __% in completion time
With the latter being something along the lines of "... $4000$% ..." or "... 32x ..." or so.

A way is use, with reference to time, the ratio
$$p_T=fracT_1-T_2T_1=frac141157approx 0.898=89.8%$$
or as an alternative with reference to speed
$$p_S=fracfrac1T_2frac1T_2=fracT_1T_2approx 9.81=981%$$
So that says $T_2$ is approximately $89.9%$ faster than $T_1$ since it is relative to $T_1$ right? How would I say "$T_2$ is a __% increase in completion time"?

@pstatix $p_T$ is a mesure of the time saved by $T_2$ with respect to $T_1$ (we save 90% of the time while $p_S$ is a mesur of how mach $T_2$ is faster ($T_2$ is about 10 times faster than $T_1$).
