I just installed Slic3r latest version for the Mac. Was using Simplify3D. I, too, See that the overall speed is grayed out and set to 80mm/s. This option is under the Advanced settings. I can set the "Max Volumetric Speed". Also under "Acceleration control" I can Set only the Default value. I can set all other speed settings. Lets Hope that the values I set for the other speed settings will over ride the "Max Print Speed" setting.
