"Increase your cron interval" advice is wrong

When the queue length is exceeded, the message described in this help article appears (emphasis, mine):

Your queue contains [N] items and crossed the safety limit of [N] items, Acquia Purge has shut itself down to prevent your system from thrashing. What this means is that you are either purging too broadly (domains, http:// and https://) or that your installation is not able to keep up. If you are not using cron for processing, set this up now and if you already are, increase your cron interval! If you have many domain names, reduce the list. Clear Varnish manually and run drush ap-forget to clear your queue and unblock the safety shutdown.

In fact you want to decrease the cron interval, as in, reduce the amount of time between cron runs. To increase the interval would cause cron to execute less often.
