:relfileprefix: ../../../
:mrdocs:

Return the time interval over which a leaky bucket _approximates_ a moving‐total of submitted units, as the rounded‐down ratio between the specified `capacity` and the specified `drainRate`. If the rounded ratio is 0, return a time interval of 1 nanosecond. The behavior is undefined unless `drainRate > 0` and `capacity / drainRate` can be represented with 64‐bit signed integral type.
