Isn't Dvorak supposed to speed up typing?

I think that the true benefit of Dvorak is added comfort. As someone else mentioned before, Qwerty sets keys far apart to prevent adjacent jamming, which seems to also increase typing speed. I find that the effect of Dvorak is that it "load balances" the often used keys and reduces the number of "long jumps" your finger has to do (ie index finger travelling long distances to hit commonly used combos, like 'ny') -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
