rpms moving

Another question... Does anyones rpm jump up and down when in park or stopped at a light and playing bass hard? Is this bad? I have an optima battery and also a cap.

I'm running 1000 watt peak on my sub and I have an Optima Red Top...Never happened before. But I'm guessing this can't be good.
