I do that, then once at speed I lift and then set cc. It was a trick people with the scion xa did as it helped the vvt to adjust. So, for scion owners who went to speed and set cc got less mpg vs those who pause or lifted a second for the vvt to adjust.

They do this as part of their acceleration, bring the car up to a certain speed, release the accelerator a tad to get RPMs to drop down and use just enough pedal to add load without raising the revs.
