[QUOTE="Zil, post: 4975621, member: 20004"] With the Beta Pathfinder Rules you definitely want to use the fast progression if you don't intend to add some of your own material in between adventures to bring the characters up to the recommended level for the next adventure in the sequence (assuming it is part of an adventure path). I believe the same is true of the final rules. I ran two different Paizo adventure paths with the Pathfinder Beta rules - one with the fast advancement rules, and the other with the medium advancement rules. With the medium rules, the characters started falling behind and I had to add/adjust things accordingly. For the adventure path with the fast advancement, I didn't have any issues with the players falling behind. Note that the experience rewards/CR for many creatures with PC/NPC class levels has changed with Pathfinder so you'll need to decide if you want to go with the CR from the 3.5 adventure or the new Pathfinder CRs. I had just been using the older 3.5 CRs, but I've started to transition to fully use the new CR scheme now that we have switched over to the Pathfinder final and I suspect that the players will start to fall a bit behind over time if I don't add/adjust the adventure path.
