I agree.  My P=1000 on my system and the FF1=1.0  

I wonder about your STEPGEN_MAXVEL and STEPGEN_MAXACCEL since you have Backlash 
set to 0.02

Here's a fragment from your INI file.
[JOINT_0]
TYPE = LINEAR
MAX_VELOCITY = 16.6666666667
MAX_ACCELERATION = 200
# The values below should be 25% larger than MAX_VELOCITY and MAX_ACCELERATION
# If using BACKLASH compensation STEPGEN_MAXACCEL should be 100% larger.
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 33.33
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 250
BACKLASH = 0.02

The comment says 25% larger or if using BACKLASH also 100% for the 
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL.
To make something 25% larger I'd multiply by 1.25 so 
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 20.83
And 100% of 200 is 200 so 
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 400

Or have I misunderstood that?
