How many degrees below your occupied temperature are you setting back?
I have a ground source heat pump and my understanding was to pretty set and forget unless you have multiple zones or are going to be away for a long period of time.
Reason being heat pumps have variable speed compressors and setting them back forces them into less efficient higher stages, and as you mention take a lot longer to recover compared to traditional heaters. If the system is sized right it should be running it should be running below max at a relatively stable power.
