You are a person after my own heart!
It just so happens that my highest rated post #287074 is about exactly this.
However, I've adjusted my methods a little. Now, I keep an eye on my estimated rewards and spending on the leaderboard. If my spending is substantially below rewards, I make a point of zapping a bit more.
Shortly after I joined Stacker News there were a couple of big discussions encouraging people to increase the amount they were zapping. That's what kicked off my obsessions with trying to get it right and encouraging others to zap more.
This is what I wanted to hear, yes, I am also looking at the table now, to adjust my expenses, I think it has been a good option to increase my zap, I think I will continue to do it as long as the margins remain optimal, I want to be a Big Zapper!

In case it helps, I also wrote a post about specific zap values, so people could be more competitive zappers: #561854.
There is very much an upper limit, where zaps no longer pay off, but it's higher than most people think.
