bridge feedrate not happening

I'm not seeing my gcode change feedrate when bridging with 'infill in direction of bridge' turned off, but it does solid fill over bridge areas.

Turned off infill in direction because skeinforge also thinks overhangs are bridges and will fill those layers solid as well.

Is this a bug?

HAve You changed the flowrate for bridges? If it is the same nothing will happen..

No this is not a bug, it is to avoid having too few perimeters when the overhang increase is more than the perimeter width total..
In slic3r that is solved with "generate extra perimeters when needed.."

Bridge speed ratio of .6, but no feedrate change for bridge areas. Refering to that as a bug, not the overhang layer infill.

It looks to me that solid bridge layer is calculating from the extrusion width, not the total perimeter.

Running a .25 mm nozzle, 0.1 mm layer height, 6 perimeter loops, no overhangs layer to layer that are more than 1mm.

Printing a Wades extruder body with horizontal holes causing alot of solid layers with infill in direction turned on.

Checking effects of Overlap Removal Width value today.

Update: Overlap Removal Width doesn't seem to make a difference for overhang layers getting solid infill.
