You can speed up the job a lot by going to Edit > Device Settings and enabling ‘Fast Whitespace Skip’ and give it a speed like 4500 mm/min or whatever your machine is capable of without skipping. That file, since there is no shading, would work a little better as ‘Threshold’ instead of Jarvis.
If you want it darker, you will likely have to slow down a bit, though that might make the weird burned corner turn up more. That is likely something inside the material, like filler, getting burned and causing soot.
