 L9/11: The slight difference of efficiency is a large difference (20%), which
 might the DELPHES user draw incorrect conclusions from the abilities of
 his/her analysis. The explanation given here should be checked, and the cul-
 prit (jet energy correction or b tagging efficiency should be fixed in DELPHES.

+>>> Very often results (rates, efficiencies) obtained with full geant based simulation give larger discrepancies than 20%.
