IIDtool quessies?

I got myself one of above mentioned tools and was wondering on the suspension height what other users have saved as pre-sets?
I have programmed my second saved setting to be 20mm higher all-round but have noticed in very warm weather it takes forever to reach off-road height. Any suggestions?
I was thinking to use my 1st preset as my on-road setting and maybe go for a -5mm setting. Good/bad idea? Will I need to redo wheel alignment?

Apologies for all the questions.

I'm running -10 no problem, slow lifting is no connection to the Iid tool. There does seem to be a limit to how low you can go and still use access height, I have tried -20 and when you go into access height it hit the bump stops and raises to off road height.
 It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Agree with M3...speed of raising has to do with hot weather and the compressor saving it self by raising slowly because of the software preventing over heating it's worth running the test section on IIDTOOL and see what temp the compressor is running at when this happens?
Ref wheel alignment I run on tar roads -20 lower and selected this on the wheel alignment rig and recorded before and after the different ride heights and was surprised that the values was within range. In extra height mode I'm sure you won't be driving that far with this selected so not really an issue either?

I have +20, +40 and +49 - the latter being as high it would change up to in one go. Not sure why I set +20 and +40 as haven't used these settings. As I use mine off road, I change to +49, which is about the same as changing the suspension to off road setting. Then when I need more clearance I'll use the suspension "off road" setting.
