Topic: extremely slow printing

This odd issue just started  happening. Even tho it's printing pretty good, it's as : slow as Christmas.It may finish by then LOL
I tried speeding things up by using the sliders on the Manual tab in RH but seems to have no effect, usually helps.Maybe something I missed in Sli3r..I don't want to stop it as it's doing well so far.Any thoughts on that?

SD3, E3D hotend,linear bearing on x/y axis',pillow block bearing on y conneting rod, ball bearngs on front y axis, fan on y stepper motor.

Re: extremely slow printing

Some times the slicer will slow down certain parts of the print job to allow the previous layer time to cool.  So this really depends on the object your trying to print.
