That means you are running at 15% of 1 IPM? Yikes, that's slow!
The acceleration parameters in the .ini file should be reduced, try
about 2.0 to start with. That is user units/second^2

Are you sure you have the scale parameters set right, ie. that one inch
on the screen moves one inch on the machine?

The max speed is set by the max_velocity parameter in the .ini file.
It is in user units (usually inches in the US) per SECOND.
