Don't know, but in most dtmf CO's, a single "w" is more then adequate.
Once in a great while a second might be needed.

The issue is that some CO's have to attach an internal "receiver" to accept the 
dtmf (or dialpulse), and some CO's are rather slow to do that. The slowness is very 
likely to vary by a small amount on each call, therefore inserting a couple of ww's 
really doesn't hurt.

Agreed, but it seems, from results by others that it doesn't work all the time even in DTMF

If you really need dial pulse, then open a bug on this as the "w" should be applied to 
dtmf and dialpulse equally. They are both exactly the same issue and should have been treated the 
same. But, I'm fairly certain the dialpulse logic was added to asterisk after the "w", 
therefore whoever did the dialpulse probably forgot all about that piece.

And of course the problem would seldom even appear if detection of dialtone were present.
See references to REALLY slow dialtone posted in the last day or less.

Are you attaching asterisk to your x-y switch?

I and quite a few other collectors are using Asterisk as an interface to our "legacy" switches in a private network. We may have lost one today in New Orleans though! I have both XY, SXS and electronic SXS switches, as well as the option to use an incoming selector if necessary.

If so, opening a bug is likely to be the only way to resolve the linefinder 
delay,

I suppose you are correct, though I have doubts that this will be considered very important. It seems there is much more interest in new "hot" features, rather than fixing what MOSTLY works. There is also a problem with DETECTION of dial pulses through an FXS interface. It is too intolorant of slight variations in dial speed. I'll see if someone knows how to let that be known. I sure don't

or, dig through the "w" code and copy the process into the dialpulse code.

That is not likely to happen, at least by me!
First the problem needs to be defined,
