As soon as the air is up, I'm ready to ease off.

My Cummins manual states that it is determental to the engine to let it idle long periods of time, will actually run too cool internally.

Start it, let the air governor pop off once and then go. If I waited until 150 degrees, I'd be thee 30 minutes and someone would be ready to shoot me. Sorry but long warm ups are not needed with the modern engines.

Warmup

Start engine, pull in slides, raise jacks, do walk around, ease out with light throttle while temp is coming, then go.
