The number represents the percentage of a second that lapses until another second ticks off the clock. So let's say you go Factor - 80 - Yes: your game will really be 80% of 32 minutes, or 25.6 minutes. I'm not sure anyone will notice that the clocks ticks fast, especially when it's being consistent.
