When I was in tuning school, we did a couple things. First, we were told that if you want to count beats between notes and/or be able to tune exactly that aboutg 26 per second was the practical limit. We also got a piano and tuned it oddly. Anotherwords, notes did not necessarily progress normally. A particular sequequence might be A B A C E G G. It was interesting that when this was done or a piano was tuned to something like A431 rather than A440 it was far more difficllt to impossible to follow rapid note sequences since expectation played far less a part in the exercise.
