Every engine is different. Also, every driver breaks in the engine slightly differently. The key is does it keep using oil or start using oil after the break in is fully complete: about 10,000 miles.
Only the first 1,000 miles involves any special driving. For the next 9,000 and forever actually, the engine benefits from hard use. It continues to loosen up for at least 10,000 miles.
