Can you elaborate on how this helps you? Most of my customers prefer
runnign faster than the charts suggest in wood because it gives them a
cleaner cut. Then again, most are not concerned with "burning" the ID of
the hole.

I _am_ concerned about burning the hole. G

If the hole won't be visible, then a bit of burn is OK, and as long as
the temperature stays below bit damaging range, all is well.

If the hole will be visible, I don't want crappy looking burnt edges in
drilled holes.

Big bits get hot fast.
