I've seen better preformance from an intersection too. Calculated directly from A big OEM's certified performance tool, at home-base where accuracy of runway data was easily verified.

After about 3 hours (net) of scratching head it turned out to be a funny - still correct though - quirk in a game of slopes, pressure altitudes and number roundings. Only AST value was affected, not MAX PERF WT.
