Hello,

Sorry about the delay.  I forgot about this thread.

I see.  As this fix is needed anyways, I'll send it up.  As for the
ramp-up, it could be normal.  There are estimators which take running
avg and modulate the threshold accordingly and the starting values are
conservative, so a short ramp-up time can be coming from that.

Thanks.
