Relative term. Feed rate, thickness of stock, type/thickness of blade, even
orientation of growth rings play a role.

Slower feed rates which allow the blade to clear dust versus pack it and
start to bow against the resistance work with any blade. But I think some
blades are just better'n others.

Enjoyed the article as well. I'm having a bit of trouble believing
that low tension statement, though. I've always read that bowed cuts
are the result of low tension. Anybody out there used this method with
success?
As far as the tracking issue, I am able to set my fence paralel to the
miter slot on the table and cut straight lines with no problem, seems
to work.
Been using a 3 tpi 3/4" blade for resaw down to 3/32 with no problem
at max tension on my Delta BS.
