Indeed. I did a "just for fun" Naxx run last night and was amazed at how much damage I did. 1500dps on patchwerk? I'm lucky if I do the same DPS on level 70 mobs now than I did at 60, and that's...

But 5pt SnD with 3/3 improved is 30 seconds, 27 seconds with only 2/3 improved. Seems 3 seconds of SnD downtime per cycle where Ruthlessness doesn't proc should lower a sustained DPS rating.
