I believe it would be slightly more optimal if the knife only rotated 1/2 of a rotation. That's what I always aimed for when I was practicing throwing knives, based on the logic that less angular velocity would provide a longer "sweet spot" time during which the knife would be at the optimum angle for deeper penetration, so if the rotation speed was off by a little bit it would still be closer than it would be if the rotation speed was "off" by the same absolute amount but with a 3x-6x faster rotation speed.
