Speeding up the Mini v2?
Post Body

No matter what I'm printing, it takes forever! I take a decent STL, slice it in Cura (or occasionally in Slic3r), load it up into OctoPrint (not Pi), and the time estimate is way off. Here's a few examples:

hand_part_0.gcode Estimated: 2.5 hours Actual: 4:23:22

head_5.gcode Estimated: 1.5 hours Actual: 4:01:54

Wrist_Linkage.gcode Estimated: 17 minutes Actual: 0:30:35

All these are printed at 0.175 layer height, 10% infill. Speed is set to 60mm/s in the slicer, but it certainly doesn't act like it's moving that fast.

Here's my profile from Cura (15.40), if it helps.
