Crosspicking: practice slow or med-up tempo?

Do you think you need to practice crosspicking slow or at medium-up tempo?

This is only hypothetical, but i think i might pick differently when slowed down and this practice doesnt bring much benefit to speed when crosspicking.
Thoughts?

Unfortunately I can’t crosspick, but for the various other CTC techniques like DWPS I found medium-up tempos to be the most instructive. Needs to be fast enough for the movement to be realistic, and slow enough to allow a certain control/awareness of the movements.
