How to get through a speed Plateau?

I know the key to playing fast is to play slow. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast etc. But how do I know how slow to play? I don't want to play so slow it ends up being detrimental. But also when can I start to speed up cause if I don't push myself I won't get faster. I guess I just don't know how long I should stay at a comfortable speed before I press on. Should I be practicing both slowly and fast?

For reference I'm practicing the main riff in "Riot" by Three Days Grace. Which I can play comfortably at 0.6 speed, 0.7 - 0.8 is strenuous but not totally impossible to keep up and stay mostly accurate. Additionally the main solo of "Buried Alive" by Avenged Sevenfold comfortably at 0.4 speed.
