Pulse braking is absolutely the way to go, even if it's high frequency pulses. You want to get the disc surface temperature up quickly, without heating the core of the disc or the pads too much. The idea is to maximise the temperature difference between the disc surface and the air to maximise heat transfer.away from the disc. But you need to fully release the brake between pulses so the pad also gets some air over it's surface.
