But … the performance of the descent engine had been improved, a bug that caused a faulty radar attitude control routine to eat up 15% of the processor time when there was only a 10% margin in the design.

The photo of the assembly language listing of the Apollo guidance code is all too familiar. My father always had at least one under each arm when he returned home each night. Homework, looking for "bugs" in the binary. Fascinating history of a fascinating time. I am the middle daughter of Clint Tillman.
