Exactly what is the difference between a pulse-start, and a, a, um, a not pulse-start ballast anyways?

I've been using M57's on my 10000K (Hamilton, which I think are just Ushios resold) for years and to be honest I've never thought "gee this just looks inefficient." What is gained by switching to a pulse start ballast?

What is an "F-can" ballast? Is that an electronic ballast by any chance? Are F-can's any better than traditional cap-n-coil ballasts?

While I'm at it, what is the average wing velocity of a sparrow?

:? :?:
