I've never seen a cooling system schematic with such a bypass, do you have a link to an image or something? I've seen tiny pinholes in thermostats to allow a tiny bit of flow.
EDIT: yah, i see it now.

so the bypass is always flowing through the engine, it just flows less when the thermostat is open. My misconception

Interesting observcation. Do you think it would it be fair if power were measured by a kill-a-watt? I'll have to try that when I get home, both in cavitation and dead-head mode (lay it in the floor).
