A BOILER processes FUEL in to steam at an average rate of five (5) FUEL per second per GOAL, but actual rate is dependent on the amount and packing of FUEL in the GOALS (i.e. the tighter the packing in a GOAL, the faster the FUEL processing rate).
5 is average, but if you jam the thing full (70 max balls for low, 150 max balls for high), it should actually go *faster* than 5/s for the same idea of less time wasted bouncing around before dropping into a carousel slot.

I've heard estimates of anywhere from 8 to 15 balls/s for a full boiler, but I don't have a source for those numbers.
