Tanking and Small Pulls

[dangadget]

What is the consensus when a tank does small pulls?

Picture it. Everyone loads in and say their preferred greetings. The tank runs out of the gate and pulls 2 tadpoles.

How do you react?

I think to myself, "Good, they're checking to see if the healer and DPS are competent, and hopefully they'll ramp it up once they see that the group can handle it"
If after the 3rd pull, they're still going slow, I'll let them know that I think we're ok to do more, but I'm not going to make a fuss about it.
Also important to let them know that they don't have to go from "cautious pulls" to "balls-to-the-wall" pulls.
If they were doing one pack at a time, let's try two now, and so on, and so on
