Analog input - internal "Oversampling"

I have some idea what this doing, but I can't find any documentation as to what it is actually doing. Would someone please point me in the right direction?

Can you explain this more? I'm not following you.

Oversampling typically means taking two or more samples and then determining the average or mean value of these.
I am just wondering how many samples and how quickly that are taken. I assume there must also be a processing time penalty involved.

There's the source code. Haven't had the time to study it myself.

According to the code linked, samples are taken every 100ms (roughly).It will use as many samples as fit within the configured delay.
As far as I can tell, if deep sleep is enabled it will only take one sample

Thank you. Very useful information, particularly regarding deep sleep enabled.

Actually the deep sleep information may not be relevant anymore. There has been a change to deep sleep handling yesterday. I am not really sure how/if oversampling is affected by it.
