The Klima relay doesn't cut-out the compressor at speed. It uses the relative speed of the compressor and engine to see if the compressor is locked. It then uncouples the clutch to protect the belt and all other accessories (such as water pump).

As far as I know the compressor has no more trouble doing 6grand than does the motor.
