Ok, I think i see the confusion re. FLHE rake. The way it is presented in the report, for the existing/2011 rake it shows it as %, but really the rake is incremental and at 1/2 up to 100/200, it's in non-banded stepped increments.
The result is you simply cannot compare old to new rake at the eyeball. It may be "5% to 1%" but due to the nature of the difference in rake calculations, the two simply are not comparable. [edit: actually that seems just an error in the chart; it's an equiv. of 1% in the 2011 rake tables too]
As I've stated, for FLHE overall it is 2.85% decrease in rake overall. Slight *increases* at 15/30+, reductions at 5/10 and below at most stakes. Please FLHE players, read my
FLHE specific trip report rather than eye-ball the rake charts.
For prosperity, here is the 2011 FLHE rake table:
