Optimise speed for large part

Hi,

I need to print this large part and would like to know what settings you would use to bring down printing time for a reasonable quality (does not have to be fantastic). Standard FAST setting for PLA in Slic3r PE gives me around 4,5 hours. Beefing up speeds, I get down to around 3 hours. I printed a similar part in S3D in about 1 hour 40 min. yesterday, but quality was not great.

I add zip file with STL and generated Gcode.

Thanks

Re: Optimise speed for large part

To reduce time on a prototype detail I increased the speed to over 200%. The detail (PETG) became somewhat matt on the surface but it was clearly approved.
