If you are running at 6000 RPMS all the time, you are elevating friction, heat. and wear. Pistons have to reciprocate. When you move them at 6000 rpms rather than 3000 RPMs, and they have to reverse direction, at which RPM do you think there is more stress on the cranshaft and the pistons?
Think about it.

Ah Bruce, we've had this discussion before, I've shown you data, and you still ask the same questions. There's nothing else I can do for you.
