High speed below 10000 ft

I seem to recall a study carried out some years ago regarding high speed below 10000 ft, specifically, maintaining 320 kts until such time as it was necessary to slow to 180 kts for loc. intercept. According to this study, using LHR as the example, total time saved averaged 57 seconds.
