Acceleration figures

The Slic3r default is not to limit acceleration, i.e. movement in any direction does not have a "soft start" but creates a jerk, causing unwanted movement of the bed (in fact, all parts of the printer). Last night I printed the base of the bolt hobber with acceleration limited to 10 mm/s/s, it is SLOW. 7 hours printing time!

The next print used 25 mm/s/s, that was slow as well.  Next I will try 100 and see how that goes, but for now we have no power, so I wait...
