all scroll too much when I use the extra Bluetooth trackpad of an iMac (27“, Late 2013) instead of the Mighty Mouse.
For example in Safari, reading an entry in Wikipedia, the scrolling action is OK, I can easily synchronize speed of reading and speed of scrolling. In the NS variants the scrolling is much too fast, I would need to move my two fingers by µm/sec and not by human mm/sec. Or is there a hidden setting I have to change?

behaves quite OK with XQuartz 2.7.8 (xorg-server 1.16.4) and XQuartz 2.7.9 (xorg-server 1.17.4). Here it’s possible to set the amount or speed of scrolling.

Not very smooth but slow enough indeed. For more information, see https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/SmoothScrolling.

Are you saying it scrolls OK with the mouse, but not the trackpad?

Yes. The default setting for the mouse could be a bit improved, using the suggestions of Jiajie Chen – I am usually not working with mice – because it scrolls a bit too fast, but by far not that fast as the trackpad.
Is there a way to find out on the command line the preferences set for mouse and trackpad? Maybe it would help determine the cause for my bug report.

Is it a Magic Trackpad, or a Magic Trackpad 2 with Force Touch?
I use the latter on a daily basis. But I have an old one laying around
somewhere. I also have a Magic Mouse. But you are using a Mighty Mouse,
aren't you?

I also did not know about those settings, thanks a bunch Jiajie Chen.
These settings feel a lot more natural, so maybe we should consider
changing the defaults (although I actually never scroll with mouse in
Emacs).

Mac OS X has the `defaults` tool to read/write settings from the command
line. For example on my machine:
$ defaults read -g | grep mouse
"com.apple.mouse.scaling" = "2.5";
$ defaults read -g | grep trackpad
"com.apple.trackpad.forceClick" = 1;
"com.apple.trackpad.scaling" = "1.5";

I did not buy anything, it’s the gear my employer provides me with. System Report/System Information says about the mouse:
Services: Apple Magic Mouse
Manufacturer: Apple (0x3, 0x31C)
Firmware Version: 0x0306
Vendor ID: 0x05AC
Product ID: 0x030D
Class of Device: 0x05 0x20 0x2580
And about the trackpad it reports:
Services: Apple Wireless Trackpad
Manufacturer: Apple (0x3, 0x31C)
Firmware Version: 0x0160
Vendor ID: 0x05AC
Product ID: 0x030E
Class of Device: 0x05 0x25 0x2594

Meanwhile mouse and trackpad are working better. The commands below give for me:
"com.apple.mouse.scaling" = "0.875";
"com.apple.trackpad.scaling" = "1.5";

My customisation looks minimal:
(setq scroll-conservatively 1000)
'(mouse-wheel-scroll-amount (quote (3 ((shift) . 1) ((control)))))
I think that I just changed 2 to 3…
For GNU Emacs 25 I have changed
(setq mouse-wheel-progressive-speed nil) to '(mouse-wheel-progressive-speed t). Behaviour of GNU Emacs 24 and 25 is now fine.
