How do you choose infill?

Is there a link to any thing that talks about the different infill patterns that are available in Slic3r?

I'd like to believe there's a strength versus weight versus print time trade, i.e. engineering choice, and not just "3D Honeycomb looks so awesome while it's printing..."

When someone asks you if you're a god, you say, "YES!"

There's this http://manual.slic3r.org/expert-mode/infill

Also quite a few youtube vids out there.

Check CNC Kitchen's YouTube channel. He did some tests.
The important thing I remembered is that if you want to add strength to your parts extra perimeters have a much bigger influence than infill patterns.
