Without knowing why, I would be wasting time. I could be changing colors when the problem is an acceleration condition created by a part shape causing underextrusion.
The entire point of this forum is to gain knowledge that you don't already. Instead of answering any questions, you could just respond "Test it yourself."
I'm not asking what works but WHY a feature exists. Understanding why allows you to design parts correctly from the start instead of screwing around and then randomly getting a good result that you don't understand and therefore can't replicate under all conditions.
I suppose if you've somehow come to the conclusion that testing things does not provide useful information (how do you suppose the people you are asking your question to have come to their conclusions?), I won't try to persuade you otherwise. I'll continue screwing around with no understanding of what I'm doing, I guess.
