Speed tweaks/hacks are prefs so they land in prefs.js in used profile when in use. That is the default place from where they work.
And that is why I did not understand Your first post.
I did not try the macro - so use my comments with some salt.
Applying speed tweaks by hand
Manual editing (U have to know what You want to do & edit the prefs.js while K-Meleon is not active, ) has the advantage that You are not restricted to those settings in the macro. There is a long list of possible settings. Only the most commonly used settings are AFAIK covered in the macro.
The entire list has been published several times. Some of them do not have much effect any more - there are no slow PC like when the tweak list was collected.
So the common ones in the macro are sufficient for most users.
Applying speed tweaks by macro
The macro/settings can be toggled? Iff - this would be good for portable use.
Easy to apply, drop kmm into macro folder & restart. End user friendly.
Maybe also when non experienced additional/secondary users of Your PC want to toggle?
Non portable use & eperienced user: it does not matter much.
You apply the tweaks once and they stay the same.
When You place them in user.js that overrides prefs.js. It can be only changed permanently by editing it. It is a good method/place to transfer from one stationary K-Meleon install to the next. Good also when other users must not fiddle with Your settings
