Hmmm - I don;t seem to have that field in mine. Can it be added and if so - where?
I think you've got the value backwards... Increasing it slows down the key repeat. The value 2 seems to be the minimum (fastest repeat) settable through the GUI. When I change it to 1 or 0 it does seem faster.
This is kind of strange. First of all, I agree with the person who posted that larger numbers SLOW the key repeat rate. So you have to go to 1 or 0. I went straight to 0 and it was flying. Way too fast. Then I went to 1 and it was still too slow. So I went back to 2, which is the fastest setting allowable through System Preferences. Get this... it seems faster than it was when set through System Preferences. I'm almost curious enough about that to do some more testing, but having to log out and back in to test every setting is a pain, and I think I'll get on with my life. But I figured I would contribute the little that I found.
Thanks for the hint. Just what I needed.
Well, now I don't know what to think. When I reboot with the value set to 1, it comes up slow again. Seems like the first time it reset it to 2, but the latest time it was still 1 (and slow) and when I went to System Preferences the slider was not as the fastest setting. I moved it to the fastest setting, which seemed more tolerable than before, then checked the setting and it was 2.
I just wish:
a) That they had a wider selection of settings. If anybody selects the fastest setting, it should be really fast.
b) That hacking the setting was more consistent and survived reboots

About battery cycles
When you use your Mac notebook, its battery goes through charge cycles. A charge cycle happens when you use all of the battery’s power—but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge.
For example, you could use half of your notebook's charge in one day, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two. In this way, it might take several days to complete a cycle.
Batteries have a limited amount of charge cycles before their performance is expected to diminish. Once the cycle count is reached, a replacement battery is recommended to maintain performance. You can use your battery after it reaches its maximum cycle count, but you might notice a reduction in your battery life.
Knowing how many charge cycles your battery has and how many are left can help you determine when a battery replacement is required. Your battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original charge capacity at its maximum cycle count. For best performance, replace your battery when you reach its maximum cycle count.
Follow these steps to access information about your Mac notebook battery, including its cycle count:
- Hold the Option key and click the Apple menu. Choose System Information.
- Under the Hardware section of the System Information window, select Power. The current cycle count is listed under the Battery Information section.
Identify your computer
Cycle count limits vary between Mac models. For help identifying your Mac notebook, use the Tech Specs page or these articles:
Cycle count limits
Use the table below to see the cycle count limit for your computer's battery. The battery is considered consumed once it reaches the limit.
