One thing I like is the pistons can be held at TDC for the whole
injection interval. *That removes one of the big issues for high RPM

They mention an improvement in efficiency is possible
but don't give any numbers. I suppose that for an essentially
fixed speed application such as an aircraft engine the cam
profile could be selected to optimise efficiency at that speed.
Interesting.
