You do want to keep oil change intervals relatively short for at least the first 10K. I don't plan on going over 3K per change regardless of the TBN numbers for quite a while.
It depends on the oil analysis - once things start leveling out I'll go for longer change intervals. Coming from a Benz with a 15,000 mile recommended oil change interval, 3000 some miles seems laughably short unless it's being broken in.
