Airbus(Airbi?) performance is always optimised.This means increasing the speed on the ground to get a better initial climb and allowing more weight to be lifted off a runway.When a pilot decides which point to use for departure I would guarantee the last thing he is thinking about is an airport's flow rate.It is not part of his safety equation.He will normally use the maximum amount of pavement available.
