What he's saying doesn't make sense seeing what you do.
If you had to parse info from a lot of entries, packets, wotnot, and it's going to quit or reset in a short time, you would want it run like a bandit initially and slow down closer to the limit. For what you do, I don't know why he would want something that would bog hugely toward the predictable end of run.
I just made my best guess based on the (semi)technical marketing eng types I deal with occasionally. Your idiots are likely different from my idiots.
