They try to maintain a good response time during peak periods (i.e less than 90 seconds). Another thing you may have noticed is the little markers with the numbers that are set next to the burgers under the heat lamps. These indicate as to when the burgers are supposed to be trashed because they've been sitting around too long. The number corresponds to the position of the minute hand on the clock. For example, 4 means that burger died at 20 after. It's useful to know when they try to sell you that one at quarter 'til or when you catch them shuffling all the numbers up by 20 minutes. -Ron
