Do you speed up so you can use P&G?

I was driving home earlier from dropping my wife off at school when I came to my favorite strip of 35mph road (no stops). There was another car behind me, but when the speed limit changed from 25 to 35, he seemed content to put along at ~30. I did P&G between ~30 and ~37 to put a bit of distance between us, so as not to annoy him.

In these situations, do you guys add a few mph so you can P&G, or do you maintain a lower speed if drivers behind you permit it?
