No, I understand the conversion factor is constant.

The subthread started when someone thought it was necessary to point out that the log everyone was talking about was the natural log.

Independent of what the actual problem is, say someone tells you that something is log(n). It is a safe assumption that they mean ln(n), but if you are are speaking out loud, that is still pronounced "log n".

What I'm looking for is better intuitions on F/ln(n) versus F/log_x(n) for some completely arbitrary function F. The intuitions for x > e are very different than the intuitions for x < e. (This is just the nature of exponents. Maybe there is no further intuition for me to develop here, other than to just practice more.)
