Stephen,
The min is inside a while loop; it is purely used to limit the number of completions that are retrieved at-a-time.  The outer while loops ensuring that all the completions are handled until budget is reached or there are no completions left. Please look again at the code I sent you.

You need to handle all completions pending in the poll, the code will
not call you back. So this min() is the problem.
