Approximately what rpm are your shift points now? And beforehand?

I can see each of your situations being reasonable, so long as the hard acceleration does not include extra unnecessary acceleration. That is, you accelerate harder, but only when you actually plan on reaching and staying at a given speed for a prolonged period.
