When using the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus, pay close attention to if the facility experiences any downtime. If the facility spends too much time idling, using the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus would produce the same number of products in the same amount of time (albeit while consuming more energy). Assuming that Proliferator Mk.III is used, any facility set to {{glow|Production Speedup}} that has an uptime of less than 62.5% should instead be set to {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, unless the extra energy consumption is an issue. This can be found by solving for {{glow|[uptime]}} in this equation: {{glow|blue|(1.25 products * 100% uptime)}} '''/''' {{glow|(2.00 products * [uptime])}} '''> 1'''. | When using the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus, pay close attention to if the facility experiences any downtime.

'''In summary:''' {{glow|Production Speedup}} | '''In summary:''' {{glow|Production Speedup}} might seem more useful in general, but becomes less beneficial if the facility has too much downtime, if the materials are difficult to acquire and/or transport, or if setting up infrastructure to deliver the Proliferator is complicated. {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} produces less product and requires more energy, but is more efficient with the materials and is simpler to use overall. The general consense is to use {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, specially for rarer materials. | ||
