Result

  • Faster (fine): 1.1×
  • Faster: 1.5×
  • Slower (fine): 0.9×
  • Slower: 0.6×

Update: As of December 2017, neither "faster" nor "slower" seems to produce a fixed amount of change in speed (for example, if one presses "faster" five times, the sequence of speeds it goes through is 1.5x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 8x, 16x).

References

Pressing [ to slow down and ] to speed up displays ±0.1 the previous speed as large text in the top right.
