Are the expensive jammers really faster

When I started, the most advanced suit was he nylon brief. Clearly the "shiny suits" were faster, but they covered your whole body. Jammers cover such a smaller area I have to wonder how much difference the top of the line ones make vs more affordable. Has anyone done testing or any objective measure? Shaving down makes about 1 second/100 difference for me and every .01 sec can be important, but is there even .01 sec difference between good jammers and top of the line?

    From my experience based on the amount of bunched up fabric at the knee due to my stubby legs, the TYR Avictor and Adidas Adizero both had the longest legs of any of the tech suits I've worn. My torso is comparatively much longer than my legs, so while those suits had excess leg length on my particular body, I don't know if they'd really count as suits on the longer side, per se. TYR makes a high waist version for the Avictor. Helps when you have a longer torso or need to contain your thunder in the rear.
