Honestly, I don't believe its fair to say "all you can eat" unless its true. Otherwise, you should put some type of detailed limit.

But attempts must have been made and probably continue.

There have definitely been instances where I've stayed at a Chinese buffet for almost 3 hours, and they didn't really care. I got my food, sat down to eat and relax, and we didn't bother each other

My school has labeled the main cafeteria "All You Care to Eat", which I still think has a loophole.

4 hours seem excessive. But I would not eat at a place that had me watch the wristwatch while I'm eating. I come to a restaurant to relax, socialize and eat well. Anyways, eating slowly would make me eat less, I think. Gives time for the full feeling to set in. I can normally throw in a lot of food if I do it fairly quickly.

I don't know why your getting down voted...it's pretty legit.
