New owner, how can I tame AMS purge waste?

Post Body

So just got my P1S AMS combo and was looking to put it through its paces. Presliced monocolor benchy of course printed great out of the box.

Now I'm attempting to print a small boardgame figurine, 26x21x37 mm. For scale, this figure could stand on the back end of a stock benchy and not come up to the stack.

Using bambu basic pla and bambu support pla (the ones that came with the printer), everything at stock settings.

Without supports it slices to a print time of 24 minutes, and warns me about floating regions and to enable support. OK...

I enable support, and it slices to just over 30 minutes. OK...

I tell it to use the pla support material for the supports, after all its there, thats what its for, why not use it right?

And it slices to a print time of 6 hours, 47 minutes, and says its going to purge 3 times the material used in the actual model. Not so OK...

Is this the current state of multicolor (or support material) printing with the AMS or am I missing some settings? Because at first impression this is seeming quite wasteful of time and filament
