    Given a function \(f: X\to \mathbb{R}\) defined on the support of a ballean, we introduce the notion of slow oscillation in direction of a filter on \(X\). We show that there exists a filter on \(X\) responsible for the rate of slow oscillation of \(f\) at infinity. We apply this result to the Stone-Čech compactifications of discrete groups.
