They are rated at 100 from Firestone, but i've had em up to 180 daily and never any problems, they just arent under warranty.

Going up quicker? bigger valves/line. What size line are you running? I'd run 1/2" fill valves with 5/8" line. Keep your 3/8" dumps, so you dont dump too quick.

3/8" valves and 1/2" line is my setup, and i think it jumps up pretty quick, plus its still within that fine line so that it has some moderate adjustability.

I Have 3/8 valves and Dual 1/2" line going to the valve which is within 2 feet of the bags, and its plenty fast enough, but its also adjustable. I used to have single 3/8 line and that was SOOOO slow. I'm glad i made the switch.
