I'm not sure that starting with full burst runtime is best, though it
definitely seems likely to be one of those things where sometimes it's

Overflow in 584 years, even cpu-years, is probably fine. And we skip
refill on the period we stop the timer, so this isn't off by one, though
it might be worth mentioning that in the comment.
