The Need for Speed

I have mostly been doing PLA prints and typically have really good quality prints - just using the standard Prusa .20 Normal settings in Slic3r.
Obviously I would love to decrease the total print time if possible. The prints I am getting look really good so I am thinking that with the quality of this printer it could probably still put out some good quality items even with a nice little increase in speed.
So my question is, what recommendations are there for increasing the speeds and /or the hot end -I'm assuming there is a need for a certain amount temp increase due to the less time the filament will have in the hot end. Initially just talking about PLA, nothing exotic.
I guess this could also serve as sort of a survey too? As in, what is the fastest you have printed with the MK2 and still had successful, good looking prints?
Thanks!
