Filtering at what level? Lengthen the sampling time? The average build up?
That is, now I'm not aware and think that I have to correct as slowly as
possible because I think that the oscillator has to be disturbed to a
minimum. Then I see low frequency large deviations, so I think, OK, I have
to average longer to account for. Is this the filtering you are referring
to? So that one ends up increasing the slowness of the system getting only
very slow frequency very large deviations.
Thanks for the help

If you have a little frequency error the longer you wait to do any adjustment the larger phase-deviation that frequency error will result in. If you sample to seldom, then you rely on your DAC resolution and stability inbetween your samples, the clock will essentially be in hold-over. If this is 1 ms, 1 s or 1000 s will make a difference.

That relates to sampling rate, which puts a limit to the loop bandwidth you can have.

But my main reaction was to the sample-rate vs. measure and adjust rate (i.e. sample rate), and I wanted to point out that there is a merit in sampling (much) faster. The modulation waveform is only to illustrate the averaging behaviour.
