Correct.  The GNU Radio runtime scheduler will always execute signal
processing blocks at the fastest rate possible given data availability.
 With "real" sources like the USRP, the flowgraph usually becomes
rate-limited by the data production rate of the USRP.  Sometimes it's
the data sink that does the rate limiting, like an audio sink.

In the OP's flowgraph, there is nothing holding up the scheduler other
than the hosts CPU speed, memory bandwidth, or hard disk controller.
