Hey John,

thanks for the pointer. I used a similar pattern before but at that
time it was just a selector without parameter. AFAIU
cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget:selector:object will match the
object parameter to see what to cancel. (and nil is not a match-all).
Since here the parameter is changing it didn't feel like the right way
to go but...

On the other hand maybe I could just store away the value and the use
the same pattern for updates. Along the lines of

-(void)setValue:(NSObject*)value
        {
                self.value = value;

                [NSObject
                        cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget:self
                        selector:@selector(updateValue)
                        object:nil];

                [self performSelector:@selector(updateValue)
                        withObject:nil];
                        afterDelay:kSliderDelay];
        }

        -(void)update
        {
                // slow update from self.value
        }

cheers,
Torsten
