when visualizing a buffer~ being record~ed to waveform~ pulsates as if its zoom changes rhythmically. Is there a way to avoid that?

I guess something is wrong with my approach. I now intuit that waveform~ has two output "modes" - one normal and the other "quick" which is used when writing to the buffer. the pulsation that I see is due to alteration of the two modes during record~ing.

The pulsation doesn't happen anymore in the original patch I've abstracted the test from, although I can't see the reason.
