Flashforge and Speed

I have two Flashforge printers, creator and pro. I'd like to try to get as much speed out of them as possible at each quality. The default in Simplify 3D is 3600mm/sec. Has anyone tweaked this? What speeds are you able to successfully print? I only use ABS.

Thanks in advance!

I am currently printing ABS at 2000. First layer at 45%. My temp is 230 and 85. Layer height 125%, layer width is 100%. I started at 3600 and slowed down until the layers stopped tearing.
