Bleichenbacher attack equation

ng flag

In the Bleichenbacher attack, when the $|M_i−1| = 1$, we should choose $r_i >= 2(bs_{i-1} -2B)/n$ in order to increase the search performance. I don't quite understand how this $r_i$ value is calculated and how this can improve the performance. Anyone can help? The above information can be found on https://eprint.iacr.org/2012/417.pdf page 3.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
