Suggestions for improving support quality for rounded objects?

I'm having some difficulty printing models where a rounded part of the object (spherical, cylindrical, a model's arm, etc.) requires support. These sections will print normally for a few layers but then occasionally break free from the support. I've tried reducing the z separation to less than the height of one layer, but it still persists. I've also tried changing print speeds from the slic3r defaults. Are there any other slic3r settings that I should tweak to improve my prints?
