Thats a good observation. I believe the deformation comes from the variable runtime of the sin method. Even with the 100 micros sleep that I've put there, in reality it takes a different amount of time between each data point calculation, making the sine wave a bit wonky. This gets worse as more and more calculations are done in parallel

At least it's not "You wouldn't believe why we could not solve this bug!" :)

It's about issues that would have lasted for ten year, without the possibility to be fixed, if we hadn't discovered the root cause - the caching policy issue.

Probably an unfortunate case of copypasta

Interesting idea! You could configure it to be non writable.

Unfortunately there is a big downside - as a third party plugin you're not really allowed to destructively change the hosted environment.
