Default Hoyt Cam size and speed ?

I was wondering. The stated speed that Hoyt put on their Xtec is 310. This is with a 7" brace height. I am assuming they are getting those numbers from the 28-31" cam. I purchased my bow with the 27-29 1/2" cam to allow my draw length to fall in the middle of this range for better efficiency. I measured my brace height and it is actually under the 7" because of the smaller cams. Being a shorter brace, wouldn't the speed actually increase? Or, would the fact that its a smaller diameter cam negate any gain? I'm sure that if in fact I would gain more speed it would be so slight that it wouldn't matter, but I'm just curious from a technical standpoint.
