It's a known fact that every SRAM built will have very high probability
of bit errors. The calculations on how often vary - there are several
presentations by Sun (those somewhat self-serving). The fact ou haven't
seen that does not prove basic facts about SRAMs wrong, and there's a
reason why high availability applications with utter zero tolerance for
bit errors (avionics, for one, among many) unerringly demand ECC.
