IMO it would be better to test the 60-100 range to see how long it takes for your robot to recover between actions.

My team isn't too terribly pneumatic-heavy, unlike the cheesy poofs(see their 2014 robot). We also store air before the match, and try to avoid running the compressor constantly during a match. A way we get around not running it constantly is having more air tanks, giving us more air to work with between the compressor turning on.
Out of curiosity what compressor did you use last year, and how often were you actuating cylinders?
