I would guess that sputtering is the amount of movement that a window pane has during high wind. By measuring this movement a window could advertise the amount of pressure it could handle without breaking.

Windows can withstand great pressure over time. However, sudden bursts of wind, known as sputtering, can break a window very quickly.
