Cruise control's Resume function seems to take a middle-of-the-road approach mainly working in the 3500-4000 rpm range -- in my limited experience.
Just think of 2500 rpm as your new redline. you will be able to accelerate just fine with that. And stop using your cruise control if you want the most MPG.
