Machine Pre-Stretching

Question:

Can you give me any information on pre-stretching string? I just got my first electronic stringer, a Prince 3000, and it has a function to pre-stretch string. A few of the people I string for are very powerful players (5.0+) and go through strings pretty quickly. A lot of them use polyester string so it rarely breaks, but it seems to lose tension and die pretty quickly, so they wind up replacing it regularly anyway. I was thinking that machine pre-stretching might extend the string life.
