We have never played with a ETU faster than 10 minutes (one game).
Most were played with it set at 30min.  In both games, we never had
any problems with delivering dust.  In the last game I didn't work on
tech (it was a "speed" game and I couldn't waste the resources).  In
the previous (30min) games, I had a tech of about 400 max (but it was
slow at that time because I went for the nukes).  In that game, I
didn't have any problems either.  It took about 3 days to mine out
a sector in the first game and less than a day in the last one.  I
still have never had problems with bars.  The mobility costs for the
different games shouldn't make a difference as it is gained back at
a constant rate.  Maybe your gold IS heavier.  Look at the empglb.c
file and see what it is set to.  I don't know ours offhand, but I'll
look it up if you care.
