Obligatory "I got a 3d printer for Christmas" and I'm absolutely loving it, fell down the rabbit hole head first. However I'm currently dealing with an issue where my Neptune 4 Pro is slowing down to 7 mm/s when it is printing the outer walls despite being setup in Cura to print at 25mm/s. Filament is Overture PETG. Pictures show the Neptune touchscreen with the 7mm/s speed shown in the bottom left and a screengrab of the speed settings from Cura. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for the detailed explanation! I actually was unaware that Cura was doing that much work in the background, it's still just a magic math box that spits out gcode in my mind. I'll start learning more about my slicer instead of endlessly scrolling thingiverse. Thanks again!
