I think you have misinterpreted my postings. I never claimed it was optimum, or at least never intended to. I think 100 secs is good for doing additional experiments with damping parameters. It would be interesting to see just how low the bulb may go. This only since it is obvious that it makes such a clear difference at 100 secs. It's a choice out of measurement and interpretation practicality, not optimum from a use perspective. If you consider my postings you would see that I rather promote the concept of adjusting the time constant dynamically to situations rather than say 1234.5678 seconds is the optimum.
