I looked up how it's supposed to work.

Seems like it relies on a fixed bandwidth underlying link, and piggybacks
on its clocks to maintain the associated state in realtime.  Obviously
designed to be implemented in hardware using an adder and an accumulator,
rather than on a CPU.

The parameters required are a direct reflection of what such hardware
requires, and are not at all user friendly.
