I use 4 sec guiding and get an almost perfectly dark sky if I subtract darks.
I find MaxIM 6's guiding absolutely perfect, so not overly sure how it behaves in PHD2 these days. MaxIM uses a TINY subframe that is VERY tight around the selected star.

I’m still getting interference patterns on most full frames with my two Lodestars in phd2 and with the latest drivers on the new laptop (no sign of this on the old and slow laptop), but have no interference when guiding only with a small box around the star.
