I didn't do the math yet, but the quote below might apply to your stuttering/resetting particle effect:

For example if you tell it to have a max of 100 particles, but to release 50 every second for five seconds, then after two seconds it's going to run out of particles, until the first ones start to die. So you'll have a patchy of three seconds where there are no particles.
