Well, I didn't do that particular calculation myself.
The thing you need to minimise is resource loss, which is given by:
integral((max resources - current resources) over the time from 33% to given hold) + (max resources - hold resources)(time to fill at given hold).
The first-order approximation of (max resources - hold resources)(time to fill from 33% to 100%) gives an answer of exactly 1/2 (I have done that calculation), but that is an approximation.
(This doesn't work in the IS case because of freighter growth and the possibility of overpop.)
