I myself enjoy a level progression slower than that presented in the APs, both as a player and GM.
[begin old coot voice] It seems that a lot of 3rd Edition / Pathfinder players end up with characters who are continually learning how to use their powers and abilities, rather than mastering them through several adventures at each level. It seems that a lot of players go through a character in a year of play, rather than keeping with the same PC for years. (Would anybody today care about Robilar or Mordenkainen, I wonder, if they'd burned through their entire adventuring careers in 6 or 9 months?) [end old coot voice]
That seems to be a design feature of 3rd Edition.
Once there are a few APs under Paizo's belt, it would be nice to have one that presumes the slow level advancement (perhaps only taking the PCs to 8th or 10th Level) and another that presumes the fast level advancement.
