What is the proper procedure for a compression test?

Fuel & spark disabled, throttle 100% open, fully charged battery, and 4-5 revolutions per cylinder conducted in each test.

with forged pistons you run a looser piston to wall clearence wich would make sence that she puffs a little when cold. The pistons will grow and close up the tolerence when she warms up.

I really can't find any problems so I believe that does make sense. I'll still do the compression test to double check but unless it starts running poorly, I'm just gonna bang the gears. How long does it take for rings to seat ? I've got about 2,500miles. Maybe it wasn't broke in properly or the wrong oil was used.
