Others have said it, but speed is very important. Also using a drill press where possible will help because the drill/work is not jumping around, and your holes will be straighter. When drilling larger holes start small and go up in steps. You have to keep the bit cutting, not just rubbing. If allowed to rub with out cutting it will dull quickly.
