I also tried and liked full and half skip chain on longer bars, but with some quick testing the full comp was always faster on the saws I normally used them on.I used to use 1/2 skip chain in 28" and 36", and I liked it. Then I did some testing (timed cuts) and full comp just cuts faster, so that is what I use now.
I still use skip on my 42" bar, just too daunting to sharpen and if I need a bar that long it's 99% a yard tree with the requisite metal in it somewhere!
