I did not realize that. If you are not auto-zooming it seems to just control the simulation speed but while auto-zooming it effects the speed of the zoom. That probably makes sense at a deep level because as you zoom in and out the simulation speed has to be adjusted to make the new level run at the same speed as the old one.
For me there's a horizontal slider in bottom middle of the screen which controls the auto-scrolling speed.
