I worked for a guy one time that had tractors with hydrostat transmissions. He wanted his tractors to be screaming (throttle opened up) when in use. I just did what he said. And drove them with engine screaming, and didn't ask anymore questions.
Aside from the hydro trans issue (which I personally don't run into much), I just run the engine throttle according to the work being done.
Engine under a load and lugging down is not a good thing, in my opinion, just because the operator is being to conservative with the throttle. Better to be running a few extra RPM's over what is needed, than consistently and always less than needed.
And yes, newer engines idle at not much less than what older engines would max out at, when it comes to RPM's. But those older engines would also not rev up as fast as the new ones will. They'd fly to pieces if they had that capability.
