A frequently more efficient alternative to annealing is to not
scale the velocities directly but apply a friction term to reduce
the forces on coefficients that already have a high velocity.

Note: This use of CP-dynamics to bring the wavefunction to the ground
state is actually a nice demonstration of how the CP method works: the forces
on the fictitious degrees of freedom direct the electron structure towards
the ground state.
