This approach DOES change the speed of llSetRot() by making smaller and
smaller rotations as the swing approaches the direction reversal point so it
is actually stationary at the peak of the swing. It RELIES on the fact that
the llSetRot() calls are in fact static for completion time.
Logan is correct, you are limited to about 5 steps per second, I had
forgotten that. The application I did was sinusoidal linear motion where
the 0.2 built in sleep in llSetPos() was not a problem.
