As documented anvil counts the events within a time window. Once
the end of the time window is reached, the counters are reset to
zero and the next time window begins.

As documented anvil is not a traffic management system. Instead,
it is a tool to slow down an out-of-control client until the
client is fixed or until it goes away,
If you get too much facebook email then anvil won't help,
because facebook is not an out-of-control client. All you're
achieving is a constant stream of retried deliveries.
