T1 interrupt and preload confusion

[amgen]

I'm confused that raising the pre-load value for TMR1h and TMR1L slows down the interrupt. Doesn't raising the loaded value make the interrupt come sooner ? It has the opposite effect of slowing down the count.
I'm using DTints @ 10 hz and counting up to 10 to get a seconds count. Raising the load value slows the seconds count. Seems backwords. What am I missing?
thankyou

Brain fart......
I was looking at my reference seconds timer which that changes inversely to the PIC time, which changes correctly with preload changes.

Simply put, your code. Yes you are correct, if you increase the pre-load, the timer will time out faster. That's all I can say about that without something to look at.
