Sort of both. The plot line (rpm Vs time) crosses for zero timed and max timed motors. For my 21.5 TPS Motor (same motor dynoed at at different timing), initially from a dead stop the zero timed motor accelerates faster than the max timed motor. Then the lines cross over at ~0.4 seconds and from that point on the max timed motor accelerates faster. The max timed motor does get to the max RPM of the of the zero timed motor (10.5K RPM @ 5V) about 1/2 second faster than the zero timed motor does, but still takes another 2 seconds to get to its max RPM (15K RPM @5V).
