What does your G-code look like?
What form is your intensity information in?

eg, if your G-code says things like
G1 X0
S 200
G1 X20
S100
G1 X25
S150

etc then you might be able to smooth it out by relaxing the
accel/decel parameters or the trajectory accuracy

You could try running the servo thread faster too, I think a change to
PWM value has to wait for a servo thread (every mS by default)
