Hi,

Doesn't give wrong numbers like initial bug and tentative patches, but
feels a bit too slow when numbers go up and down. Correct values are
reached when waiting long enough, but it feels slow.

As I've tested many combinations, maybe this is an impression because
I do not remember about "normal" delays for the load to rise and fall,
but this still feels slow.

Thanks for working on this problem again.
