Here is a modified example from the varSpeedServo library that changes the speed in accorcance with a potentiometer setting. Pot connected to pin A0, servo to pin 9. Note that the wait function blocks.

#include <VarSpeedServo.h>

// create servo object to control a servo
VarSpeedServo myservo1;

void setup()
{
   // initialize serial:
   Serial.begin(9600);

   myservo1.attach(9);
}

void loop()
{
   int LEF = 0;
   int RIG = 180;

   //int SPEED1 = 160;
   int SPEED1 = analogRead(A0) / 4;
   myservo1.write(LEF, SPEED1);
   myservo1.wait();

   SPEED1 = analogRead(A0) / 4;
   myservo1.write(RIG, SPEED1);
   myservo1.wait();
}
