This weekend I was paddling with eight other paddlers.  I was the only one
with a GP.  One woman with a relatively large EP (a CD Edge bent shaft - too
large for her) was paddling at a somewhat higher cadance and was no faster 
than me.  I noticed the others were using similar stroke rates to mine.
