I know that the AIM tell us that class E airspace traffic advisories
are given to VFR aircraft on a workload basis. However, I seem to
recall some of our controller friends saying that as long as an
aircraft is currently being given flight following the controller must
either advise traffic or cancel the flight following. I'm looking for
this type of language in the 7110 but I'm not seeing it.

What workload permitting means is the controller doesn't have the option of
denying traffic advisories so long as his/her workload permits. If you look
at the practical side of it, a controller can be very busy one minute and
mostly idle the next, so does that mean a controller must add more workload
by cancelling FF for each and every aircraft when they may be soon idle?
Most controllers aren't going to, and I can't say I would want them to
anyway.
