I try to time it just right, so the revs drop just as the clutch disengages. It's a balancing act between avoiding an increase in revs as a result of too much gas on the unloaded drivetrain, and enough gas so there's no engine braking before the clutch disengages. I think I get it just right about 98% of the time, without thinking about it at all.
