What could that mean? If it was low compression, wouldn't the blow-by reduce as the engine warmed up due to ring expansion?

Is it possible to put that much weight in this "tea-kettle" test? Unless you are consuming a large quantity of oil or some other malady, what is the point? Isn't the only true test for "blow-by" parameters a compression test?
Other factors involved are weight/type of oil, vacuum pump, outside air temp, valves, and others.
