I think the original wording was a little better.  what about...

"... a new meaning: in addition to declaring that the server will always 
request at least 'minreq' bytes from the client, it will also guarantee 
that requests are generated as soon as possible after this threshold is 
reached. (I.e. it will behave similar to hardware period-size 
interrupts.) This flag should only be set..."

(Assuming that I've even understood this paragraph.  It's not worded 
very well.)
