> I want the four finger swipe sped up.

Ok, I never use that one. Sadly it seems that for the sake of consistency with the physical world this animation is tied to the movement of your hand (whereas the MC exposé swipe is a trigger).

> I don't know the absolute numbering of my spaces, it's a relative association for me.

One can set up "Move Left/Right a Space" shortcuts in the Keyboard prefpane. Same animation speed as the swipe, which feels ungodly slow.
