While I agree that this setting should be OK, it ends up with
dq = -Uact / Umax * dt
which I remember I originally tried, and gave some issues
(I do not remember the details, but I think if you try N
identical reclaiming tasks, with N > M, the reclaimed time
is not distributed equally among them?)
I need to think a little bit more about this...
