I found that the rpms will only drop quickly if you are 100% off the throttle before you touch the clutch, during normal driving you wouldn't do that as it makes for more jerky behavior. This could be attributed partially to the electronic throttle not sensing the load change quickly enough, compounded by the heavy flywheel.
There may be an additional factor at work here...If you read the VVEL expose over on the other forum (Posted today) it states that the throttle plate kind of plays second fiddle to the Cam actuation in determining some engine speed settings...
