Been playing with Solana a lot more lately, but price quotes are sluggish, 50% of my trades fail, trades take ~15 seconds to complete, and I have to break my trades up into much smaller increments to get them through. 

Any tips on how to get a better experience here? Moved my slippage up to 1% and that helped.

Use Trojan on Solana. It's from the original Unibot team. Can only say the best about the bot. Fast execution, easy settings and even has "Bolt Pro" feature for power users which makes execution even faster. Also supports limit orders which is huge. Give it a try:
