Usually optimization comes out in the questions that ask for the maximum and the minimum without the word "relative" preceding it. This is really popular in the accumulation questions, but some of the questions that really get at the heart of optimization are: when is the amount of sand lowest, when is the particle furthest to the left, etc.?

As far as raw %, it varies from year-to-year. I would say shoot for 75 points (out of 108) and you should be safe.
