I beleive it is, actually. I don't remember my math offhand but I'm sure the ratio of surface-area to volume is bigger for a sphere than it is for a cylinder. I'll have to look it up but it's been a few years since I did any calculus and I'm way dumber now than I was when I was back in school so ... we shall see how it goes ..
