Occurred to me that it would be interesting to know whether this was really
due to processor overhead (interrupt handling, context switching, etc.) or
is maybe related to other things, such as timing delays guaranteeing the
synth has settled, etc.
The fact that a fast tuning rate causes the sweep to go into a "hold" state
leads me to believe it has something to do with system housekeeping. But
that could still be caused by factors other than raw processor (CPU/DSP)
power.
