Hi Rich, You can create and pass a tune_request_t into the set frequency call of a USRP object. This gives you control of how it tunes. By default it does not optimize for speed to my knowledge. http://files.ettus.com/manual/structuhd_1_1tune__request__t.html
Depending on what USRP you are using there are self calibration thresholds which will cause a retune to incur a delay when tuning outside of a certain range. On the B200 for instance this range is 100MHz.
