You're saying that the device is so bad at regulating the ramp rate that
it's not only failing to keep up with the desired ramp rate and capping
at whatever rate but it's also doing even worse if configured for a
slower rate?  That's not great, it sounds like it's doing the ramp
control via some sort of dead reckoning thing rather than by actually
ramping the voltage it's trying to regulate like it was asked to.

Is the error in the observed values a function of the capacitance that
we can calcuate here?
