I would think that as slow as possible piston speed would yield the highest efficiency. After pondering it for a while maybe this ideal piston speed is best used to determine the bore to stroke ratio. After all if your piston speed is below what they consider optimum, you coulda designed you motor with more stroke and less bore for the same displacement.
