# This is an optimizer for throughput of batched migration jobs
#
# The underyling mechanic is based on the concept of time efficiency:
# time efficiency = job duration / interval
# Ideally, this is close but lower than 1 - so we're using time efficiently.
#
# We aim to land in the 90%-98% range, which gives the database a little breathing room
# in between.
#
# The optimizer is based on calculating the exponential moving average of time efficiencies
# for the last N jobs. If we're outside the range, we add 10% to or decrease by 20% of the batch size.
