Paul S said:I thought it was do to the fact that at the softer 'crawling' valving they were working much harder at higher speeds than the proper 'high speed' valving did.
I was only running 100psi, so Robert's comment on pressure could play into it too.

The rule is that the stiffer the valving, the more heat (you're taking what causes heat-internal friction of the piston and oil-and increasing it). When running fast through the desert, you are going to use almost all of your travel constantly, whether your valving is soft or hard. With softer valving I just hit my bumpstops harder. I know from experience that low pressure will cause more heat and fade, so I bet that was the problem.
