Well, that was a fun [but short] run of running stock Prusa firmware. And, FWIW, I like the upcoming changes in 3.9.0. ...tho I think the 'IR sensor is flaky' fixes are a little misguided... ...maybe because I think the problem is something different entirely...
Have you discovered monster nozzles yet? (As in, 1mm or greater.) Does a lot for throughput.

Unless paired with an equally monster heatblock, heater and melt zone, a bigger orifice can't move more plastic than the thermodynamics can melt... An e3d v6 is going to be limited to 8mm^3/s nominal with PETG (12 if you're pushing it) regardless of nozzle size.

Huh? My E3D v6 clone with a 40W heater and a 1mm nozzle puts down a 1mm wide * 0.7mm high strip of PETG at 30 mm/s just fine. That's 21 mm^3/s.
