   * <p>Assuming we have saturated demand, the time to go from maxPermits to thresholdPermits is
   * equal to warmupPeriod. And the time to go from thresholdPermits to 0 is warmupPeriod/2. (The
   * reason that this is warmupPeriod/2 is to maintain the behavior of the original implementation
   * where coldFactor was hard coded as 3.)
   *
   * <p>It remains to calculate thresholdsPermits and maxPermits.

       * fastest (more than twice as fast as the Java implementation, vs ~1.5x with non-final static
       * fields, on x86_32) under the Hotspot server compiler. The reason is obviously that the
       * non-final fields need to be reloaded inside the loop.
       *
       * And, no, defining (final or not) local variables out of the loop still isn't as good
