The log snippet is consistent with today's p99, though. You've just generated different output by pressing the button faster.
e.g. this is also p99:
Edit: But, you're not contesting that the fluxes per second in your snippet and the Nov 2001 snippet are different, so what are we even doing at this point?

Thats my point, i am pressing the button or clicking (Both mechanisms produce the same output on my end) and the max i can get through is 5, but more commonly 4.
What I suspect the system does is only allowed 1 action per server confirmation. IE i send a command to "do action" the server has to accept that action and then send it back to me that I did it, before allowing another action.
This means that people with lower pings will be able to complete more actions per second on p99. such as fluxing.
On live, per the patch notes, there was a short cast time, similar to Tri Plated Hammer, you could hit the button as fast as you could, but with the cast time, it clamped it down to 2 or 3 actions per second max.
The entire thread has been vastly productive for drilling down what happened. I would of never thought to test dain hammer as a baseline for the "short cast time" but given its behavior, it seems like basically ALL activateable "instant" effects should behave the same way. Essentially have a short cast time that stops the spam. And the patch notes reflect this.
