Like I said, I've heard it, read it and when attending a 2 day seminar at Mac Boring had it confirmed by Larry Berlin. To say it may be OK to run at 50% maybe one thing. To say it is preferred is against all accepted criteria regarding diesel cruising speed. I don't agree with smitty447. Maybe the 50% theory works with gas motors.
