Spell speed up

[UBERHAXED]

How do you mean? A 20% increase to spell speed, at base SS stat (~70 bonus), is a far cry from a 20% increase to casting speed (from 2.5 to 2.0 GCD, i.e. a BLM's dream proc). I don't think I've seen it cut more than .08 seconds personally, even with a lot more SS than I'd have liked.

Casting speed does not change your global cool down. Also currently spell speed affects DoT damage, which is more noticeable on a class which uses 4-5 regularly for damage. The reason it is more valuable on BLM is because they have cast times longer than the GCD.
