Oh, thank you. This was immensely useful. I now will pick some other object of study, and limit myself to a few tests (about 8). I kinda suspected I'll have to obtain data for as many populations as possible, to estimate between-population variation, and for as many trial specimens as possible, but I didn't know exactly how to check it for efficiency. Happy winter holidays to you!
