I was wondering what is the minimum time between items in a bid group that will allow AS to realize that an item has been won and cancel the others? I know that AS goes into "lock down mode" on an item a bit before the bid closes. You can't modify it, the server get ready, etc.. . so if I have three items all ending 2 sec apart from each other and I win the first item it is obvious that AS has placed bids on all three, using the default lead of 5 sec. But what if they are all 6 sec apart? Is that one second enough time for AS to see the first win and not place the second bid? How much time, in addition to the bid lead time, does AS need to see a win and cancel the next bid?
