I wonder if Clenshaw-Curtis Quadrature (CCQ) is more adapted for Adaptive Quadrature than Gauss-Kronrod (GKQ). It seems like with CCQ the points at one level of resolution can be reused for the next level. The error bounds for a given level of resolution is the comparable to GKQ, so I'm guessing that from an accuracy/evaluation perspective, CCQ is 2 times as efficient as GKQ.
