On trailing throttle (gasoline engines) the fuel flow is shut of after about a 2 second lag. When you apply throttle again, the microswitch re-establishes fuel flow before the throttle butterfly valve begins to open. This avoids jerkiness, and I can only assume that it serves the same purpose on diesels.
