My training empahsized the concept of hustling not only by the umpires but also by the players. Specifically, inbetween innings we were instructed to allow 4 warmup pitches to start the game and an infield/outfield ball. After the 1st inning, one warmup pitch and no infield/outfield balls. Every new pitcher gets 4 warmups. Games flow nicely due to this. I thought there was a ruling on the # of pitches for warmup, perhaps this is just a SOP in my area and no actual rule....dunno but it works great!
