EOC Pulse & Glide?

Perhaps this is a tad too much stress on the starter, but I was wondering if anyone does EOC P&G - that is, turning the engine off after accelerating above the speed limit and then coasting.

It seems like it might be a little much, though effective if you could sustain your coast over a long period. When I P&G over my 6 hour drive, I usually use a 20 mph window between my maximum and minimum speeds. Would you have to use a larger window for this to be effective?

Just curious. I doubt I will be testing this or anything. P&G itself is a lot of work, especially on arduous interstate trips.
