If ‘Indefinitely' is chosen, then be sure to turn that off when the preference is not needed anymore to preserve Mac's life. The best alternatives Amphetamine, Coffee Buzz, Don't Sleep, Insomnia X, KeepingYouAwake, Lungo, Theine 3, and the Caffeine alternatives for Linux and Microsoft Windows operating systems are comparative software. The history of macOS, Apple's current Mac operating system originally named Mac OS X until 2012 and then OS X until 2016, began with the company's project to replace its 'classic' Mac OS.That system, up to and including its final release Mac OS 9, was a direct descendant of the operating system Apple had used in its Macintosh computers since their introduction in 1984.

Hmmm - I don;t seem to have that field in mine. Can it be added and if so - where?
I think you've got the value backwards... Increasing it slows down the key repeat. The value 2 seems to be the minimum (fastest repeat) settable through the GUI. When I change it to 1 or 0 it does seem faster.
This is kind of strange. First of all, I agree with the person who posted that larger numbers SLOW the key repeat rate. So you have to go to 1 or 0. I went straight to 0 and it was flying. Way too fast. Then I went to 1 and it was still too slow. So I went back to 2, which is the fastest setting allowable through System Preferences. Get this... it seems faster than it was when set through System Preferences. I'm almost curious enough about that to do some more testing, but having to log out and back in to test every setting is a pain, and I think I'll get on with my life. But I figured I would contribute the little that I found.
Thanks for the hint. Just what I needed.

Well, now I don't know what to think. When I reboot with the value set to 1, it comes up slow again. Seems like the first time it reset it to 2, but the latest time it was still 1 (and slow) and when I went to System Preferences the slider was not as the fastest setting. I moved it to the fastest setting, which seemed more tolerable than before, then checked the setting and it was 2.
I just wish:
a) That they had a wider selection of settings. If anybody selects the fastest setting, it should be really fast.
b) That hacking the setting was more consistent and survived reboots
