Hmm... wasn't the power consumption quadratically related to the power
consumption? If that's true, it would be better to have a constant average
speed:

Scenario 1: speed is 3x, 1x, 3x, 1x
power consumption is 9x,1x,9x,1x = 20

Scenario 2: speed is 2x, 2x, 2x, 2x
power consumption is 4x,4x,4x,4x = 16

Or is it impossible to boost to a certain value? Or am I making some
calculation error?
