Most of the count speed comments are more perception than reality. If I put a number on it, about 90%+ of refs counts are too slow (if timed with a stopwatch) by a large amount. Many will be 15-20 seconds.

If you are told your count is too fast but upon checking it with a watch it is right on or even still to slow, try shortening the arm movement. A very full arm movement will look very fast even if it is right.
