BECN question

I have a pretty simple question about BECN but one that I am having some trouble finding the answer too. I have been playing around with this feature in the lab and while I understand what it does I don't understand the manner in which it does it. The way I understand it is BECN send messages to the sending router to slow down the rate of traffic. How does it decide how slow to reduce the speed? I also cannot figure out if BECN will reduce traffic speed only down to the CIR or if it will reduce it to near 0 if need be. Is there anyway to control this?
