I've had those exact tires. Great great tire.
I'll deal with the slowness (I never noticed) but I enjoy not biting it when hitting a patch of road sand or gravel on the shoulder. My LBS is a self-described gravel bike shop. They all run these on their personal bikes and they call them "Velcro" - plus they give off that oh-so-satisfying buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Setup tubeless, I was able to run these at about 18psi in the front and about 27 in the rear with no problems!
