The static estimates are often very rough ones because it's sometime not that easy to get a handle on accurate ones. In the extreme the estimate gets just set in such a way that you don't run into a "resource limit exceeded" issue - so you add at least some headroom. However, even in such a case you may know that your app will behave more or less linear. This is why I think having the said opt-in flag would be very useful for such apps. Cheers, Oliver
