Dry run speed

I have the classic control. I tried dry run for the first time here, it appears to set rapids on about 1%, and takes about 1 minute to change tools, etc, then is extremely slow. There appears to be no way to override these speeds, but perhaps I am missing something?

Mill software version is 17.04 I think.
 
I've never used it, but this is from the operation manual:

"When in Dry Run, all rapids and feeds are run at the Dry Run speed selected from the Jog speed buttons.
The bottom of the screen will display the rate as 100, 10, 1.0 or 0.1 inches per minute."
 
I don't use dry run, and don't think I ever have, but if you like/want/need to do it that way be aware the NGC does not have a dry run button. There might be a param to use it somewhere, but I don't know.
