* There is a delay of several seconds for successive transfers between a POCO and storage on the planet surface. If there are multiple launchpads to retrieve material from then try to first consolidate material into fewer exports with [[Setting_up_a_planetary_colony#Intraplanetary_Logistics|expedited transfers]].

* Splitting stacks of input materials can make complex imports quicker and easier, particularly if running a more advanced factory setup.

* Warping to [[Bookmarks|bookmarks]] on POCOs, rather than POCOs themselves, is faster and easier than navigating the system menu to select a destination. An ideal POCO bookmark could permit an Epithal to start aligning to its warp-out destination while conducting the transfer with the POCO.
* Epithals are not small and need time to align for warp-out. It is possible to collide with the POCO and bump the Epithal away from its alignment path, thus increasing time to warp. The risk of this increases if warping between multiple POCOs during the same outing, or if warping directly to a POCO.

* Try not to also lose the pod, as this at least provides some intel on whether the threat has left the system.

* For station > poco > station, this won't be a problem, but chunky epithal can bump the poco if you make more than one stop and the poco is in the alignment path as warp speed is attained
* Use bookmarks on pocos, rather than warping to them; bonus points if the bookmark is situated such that you can start aligning as soon as you land, conduct your import or export, then be several seconds closer to warp
