I have a DDJ-1000 and tried Rekordbox recently, and i was a bit shocked by how rough it is. VirtualDJ is better in almost every way by a mile. The only notable exception is some mapping preferences i can easily change myself, and the backspinning behaviour. Rekordbox also detects backspinning, just like VDJ when you have it enabled in the settings, but Rekordbox will resume playing a lot earlier than VDJ, even with the platters set to maximum grip. VDJ always lingers for a moment after a backspin before it resumes, which is a bit awkward. I've checked the settings and the only thing i found was the backspin detection sensibility.
So the TL;DR is, can i adjust the point in time when VDJ will resume playing the track?

There's no "point in time" to resume playback.
VirtualDJ waits for the jog to stop moving completely before it resumes normal playback. I don't know how Rekordbox behaves in that matter (e.g. use inertia instead) but technically the correct way is to wait platter to stop reporting movement before resuming playback.

I recorded a video, should make things clearer:
