Whoever said the thing about squealing tires being slower is wrong. From what I have learned tires are still slightly below grip threshold when they are squealing. Not sure for slicks though.

Slicks don't squeal unless you spin, so no, you don't want to be hearing these
I was told along time ago that, "if your tire ain't squealing, you ain't going fast enough!"
