It's really up to the profile vendor. Argyll uses a thin plate regular spline approach, and does sacrifice some level of accuracy for smoothness. This can be controlled (programmatically), but generally I've tried to maximize accuracy, rather than maximize smoothness. Even if the "smoothness" factor is turned down, there is a limit to how much it can smooth out "bumpy" sample data or device response.
