Your servo has a natural encoder resolution of 10,000 counts per rev. In theory its resolution is 1/10000 of a rev or 2.16 arc.minutes.
That's pretty good, and highly desirable on an axis where you want very fine resolution, but it also means that your controller has to signal very fast
to get the servo to get to maximum speed.
It may well be that you do not require such fine resolution, or maybe your controller just cannot signal fast enough, or the electronics/wiring required to signal
that fast over that length is just too much.
