10.51 haste rating = 1% haste at level 70 (please correct me if you know this to be false, I'm going off what I've seen in Hunter discussions)
15.924 haste = 1% DPS increase
100 AP ~= 2.82% DPS increase --> 35.46 AP ~= 1% DPS increase (taken from last page of Itemizing thread, post by Tornhoof)
1 haste rating ~= 2.22 AP
So, haste rating is a pretty good use of item budget -- even better than STR with Kings.

That's very interesting indeed! However, how far can you take that before it becomes a nerf in DPS rather then a buff (referring to Pater's graph). You will never be nerfed when you stack up AP, but 40% haste seems like the cap until you can get as much as 55% (or more) haste, is this correct?

I'm wielding a 2.6 MH weapon at the moment, and with flurry, mongoose and bloodlust I'm down to 1.51 speed on my mainhand, and 1.28 on my OH (2.2 base). I'm just curious, do I want to grab haste-items so I have 1.5 speed without bloodlust, and then once I pop bloodlust will I get that last 15% in Pater's model to actually boost my DPS, or will BL in this case actually nerf me?
And with my current stats, if I get mongoose on a future offhand, won't that nerf my DPS? Since when both mongoose are up, I'll get 1.49 MH speed with BL?
