You shouldn't need to throw for 10 seconds hardly ever. If you consistently are throwing for extended periods of time then maybe you've strayed from the guide?
Is your damage low for some reason? (Missing Faith, Skills, Gear changes?)
Deadly strike (Highlords) + Amp makes a big portion of your effective damage.
That said, sometimes it's just fun to lay waste to some stuff and have some fun.
Now if you're just mass clearing mobs for fun, e.g. pit runs, mf runs, rushing, etc., then you're most likely outside the Chaos Sanc and free from the dangers of IM.
If that's the case, you can shift back to Frenzy frequently and you'll last for a long while without dropping much killing speed. Trash tends to have much lower defense than the Super Uniques in Chaos. (Don't forget the 1 point in axe mastery!)
If your gear is to the point where your AR is sufficiently high and your doing things like soloing Diablo (or Baal) in baal runs or other full games (which I often do since I don't have a steady kill partner), then you can run with Gores for the CB which with frenzy can take Diablo down rather quickly with frenzy without sacrificing a large quantity of your weapons.
Just my 2 cents. It's tips from how I fixed my earlier problem of running out of weapons. I used churn through my 3 sets of weapons, now I only rarely dip into a second set unless I'm almost trying to burn them up.
Yea, I prefer using goblin toes for stuff like that (like in the ubering part) over goes.
We already have high deadly strike, and 33% chance of open wounds, so I like the 10% more crushing blow off goblin toes.
