How mycket snabbare är Millennium Falcon jämfört med en YT-1300?

Starlogs tekniska tidskrift (del 1) indikerar att lagret YT-1300 endast hade en standard ljus -speed plus punkt one hyperdrive i motsats till den upplysta "light-speed plus-punkten fem hyperdrive" som Han pratar om i Star Wars: Ett nytt hopp. Något som hastigheten differentiell faktiskt är, förklaras inte i någon stor detalj.

The Millennium Falcon's power, propulsion and computer network arrangements require a constant maintenance schedule that keeps her repair and adjustment time at a level nearly twice the ship's flying time. Solo regards the trade-off as well worth it, for more than once his life has been saved by his ship's speed and extreme manoeuvrability. A beefed-up hyperdrive system is at the core of the Falcon's increased speed, which is well above the light-speed plus point one capability of the standard Corellian YT-1300. Four fuel slug tanks in the ship's power core give her an increased range, even at extreme speeds and engine temperatures. While repairs to her various systems must usually be performed each time the ship lands, she refuels at an average rate of only once per month.
