filtering etc might give you a speed-up (eg  a constant one --less
stuff to load) but if filtering is safe w.r.t to the source data, then
you shouldn't see much here.

(pruning the table should make it faster since there will be fewer
options to consider, but this is not safe)

i guess you might also see fewer page faults and the like with a
smaller model and that will help matters.

but in general, the beam size is the most direct way to make it faster.
