I've printed at 80mm/s and it came out very pretty and tolerated the overhangs without support. Could probably run faster on a well-calibrated bedslinger with movement sensor / CoreXY, and maybe even 120 mm/s could haved worked on my setup, but I wasn't in a hurry and preferred getting good results first shot.

Differences of the remix compared to the original
I liked the original design a lot, but it's barely printable, if at all, even before scaling down - and scaled down to 50-60% it's non-printable, because the wall width there is miscalculated in the thin part and becomes a hole. After fixing that, the bottom was overhanging too much and causing Cura to output fully filled layers, and the incrustations on the chest were starting to print on nothingness. So I've decided to fix all that and make it printable down to 50-60% scaling, and in addition modified the insert to print upside down without the need for support, and even put an anti-mosquito net in the water pipe. The net doesn't really come out straight at 60% scaling, but it's dense enough to do its job.
Since I did all that, I figured I'd just as well share it, maybe other people like Totoro like my wife does. So here it is. I printed at 60% scaling and never tried printing it full size, but I believe it should work.
