pax2908 linked an article in Maintenance and Engineering that states on page 92 (page 8 in the PDF): "According to IBA, GP7200-equipped A380s are operating at about 4,550 EFH and 500 EFC a year". The engine entered service in 2008, so the oldest engines are probably still below 5000 flight cycles? which would make 3500 high by comparison to the rest of the fleet, hence "relatively".
