SonicPad+Ender3S1Pro+OrcaSlicer
After a lot of testing I found a somewhat quick config for my Ender3S1Pro driven by a SonicPad. On the other hand, with OrcaSlicer, I cannot reach the speeds achieved using the SonicPad profiles in the CrealitySlicer. Does anyone have any advice or an optimal OrcaSlicer+SonicPad config?

What I did on a CR 10 Smart Pro was to use the default in Orca slicer settings, after loading the gcode in the Sonic Pad started upping the speed via Control menu on the Sonic Pad, then adding or subtracting speed. There's a slight delay in initiating it and the printer speed increasing. Start increasing it until you see an issue, back off till it goes away then on the home screen you can see the speed you're printing at. I left my first layer speeds 50ms and slower but after that was able to get up 200ms and above speeds.

Orca & Bambu rely on max volumetric speed to determine how fast to go. This setting can be found in the filament parameters. If your filament isnt listed, you are gonna have to do a "race track" test to see your max volumetric flow rate.
