so I was accidentally helpful with the load balancer addon and I figured I
should post the conversation here to deter future emails.

Hello,

I wanted to see if you could provide some simple explanations of the Load
Balancer settings - perhaps you could quickly describe each settings function,
especially "workload:ease". That would be very helpful.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ok so basically ignore the workload/ease option exists, it was a mistake to let
people see that option. I'd remove it but then I'd be like the GNOME people and
that's even worse.
the rest just control the span of possible days to schedule a card on. it looks
at those days for the easiest day and puts the card there. the functions should
be self explanatory at that point.
also ctrl+L for debug log it'll explain what the algorithm is doing.

Hi Jake,

I took a look and thought about it; could you let me know if my understanding
is correct:

I want the range of the new due date to be 1-10 days before and after the due
date. Then, max time before should be 10, min time before should be 1 and same
for max and min after, respectively.

If that's correct then my only question I would like clarification on is
"what does 10% Days before signify?"

Clarification would be appreciated; anyway thanks for the add-on.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the percents are the ranges used for the algorithm with the max/min being the
limits.
like due in 20 days at 10% then ±2 days. if that is greater than the max then
it will go down to that. or if a minimum is set it will go up to that.

Hello Jake,

I noticed that the load balancer prevents modification of the default
Graduating interval and Easy interval boxes.

The min/max boxes for graduating interval only allows me to set the range
after the scheduled due date, but not change the due date (graduating interval)
itself. How can I adjust the graduating interval. Please help

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

they are grayed out because they do nothing.
the new entries allow you to specify the range is the possible days it can land
on.
And if you dont like that, you can mimic the original functionality by having
the same number in both (this is what I do actually).
It was a feature request like 53489583490 years ago I think.
