When I have desired retention at 90%, my reviews are almost double compared to at 85%. Also I don't need to know that much right now.

Would it be wise to stay at 85%, until just before final exams where I can set it to 92 ish and then reschedule all cards on change?

It feels a bit pointless maintaining 90s when I only need it at the last second, and then it will take minimal effort to just boost it up a bit.

Load being sum of (1/interval) of all cards.

Which settings, or things I might have not considered, will create the greatest average drop in load?
