The preferred thing is not to do precisely that.  It's to have the action
method use, say, -performSelector:withObject:afterDelay: and +
cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget:selector:object: to schedule
expensive work that cannot be performed too often.

A couple things to note:
(1) Users using full keyboard access or accessibility are not using the
mouse, so no mouse up.
(2) According to Apple's human interface group, it is highly desirable that
changes made with sliders be live whenever possible.  If something is too
expensive to do completely live, you still shouldn't wait for mouseUp: to
produce the 'real' effect, just avoid doing it every single time the user
twitches.
