I haven't started coding it yet, but I plan to do linear interpolation.
That's what I do in my particle system, and it works well IMO.

With linear interpolation I can make the frame rate and the iteration rate
completely independent from each other, so one doesn't have to be a multiple
of the other. For example the frame rate can be 25 frames per clock unit and
the iteration rate can be 40 iterations per clock unit, which would make for
an average number of 1.6 iterations pr. frame.
