Space Between ironing passes

Any info on how this setting plays in with nozzle diameter? I would think .1mm with a .35 or .4 nozzle would be good, I would think when using a larger nozzle such as .75 this parameter could be increase with the same results.  Any input would be appreciated,  currently trying .3 but wanted really don't have time to experiment..  or is this so new know one knows how this parameter plays.. 

Will post in this thread how it this change effect the finish but please let me know if you have any experience

2.3.0 Final

.3 reduced the time spent ironing as would be expected and the results were still acceptable. Unfortunately  it seems Ironing is an interactive event where you need to pick off the excess filament from the nozzle and off the print at the edges of the ironing area if you want good results.. Maybe worthwhile for certain prints wen top surface will affect performance..

Would also like to know how flow rate applies as I see  not movement of the extruder during ironing.
