I know that it is usually per<space>..., but syntactical expressions don't
follow standard grammar usually, and this is one of those times. I assumed
that per-minute, per_minute, perMinute, or another syntax was preferred over
normal grammar due to spacing it distracting from the fact that it is one
parameter. I brought it up to begin with since perminute doesn't emphasize
that it is more than one word to begin with.
