I'm not sure but probably not a huge difference in terms of what you're looking for. It is a low speed compression damping adjuster so I doubt it will do a lot for bumps. Some but not much.
They're not quite worthless, it can help to adjust for squat (low speed damping). But people buy the shocks from other bikes and reason that since they're "fully-adjustable" they can make them work perfectly on the SV, which is wishful thinking. Even a Penske triple has to be set up correctly internally ideally, there is no such thing as "fully-adjustable."
I would back off the prelaod, your current setting is extreme, the suspension needs room to extend. Also, is your bike not feeling unstable at all with the rear end jacked so far up? The first setting you had sounds decent to me (2 threads).
