[chuck-dev] SinOsc calculations

Hello! I was looking through the source recently, and I was a little 
surprised to find that the SinOsc UGen performs a trig function every 
sample. I was under the impression that most osc implementations use a 
lookup table with interpolation because it's considerably more efficient.

Was this a specific design decision? Would there be support for revising 
SinOsc for efficiency if the audible result was indistinguishable?

Thanks,
Joel
