Check the temperature of the between chiller and tank water. If you are using low flow, you should get a lower reading of abt 2C from the tank water.

If the flowrate is slow, you risk the temperature probe registering a false reading. This will cause the chiller to start/stop regularly, sometimes 4-5 times/hr. E.g if the water do not leave the heat exchanger fast enough before the reaching the preset temperature, the chiller will sense that the water is chilled thus shutting down the compressor. When warm water from the tank gradually replaced the chilled water, the chiller will again start the compressor because now the water is warmer than the preset temperature!

The temperature probe may be registering a false reading that the preset temperature is already reached. When the water temperature equalised, the water temperature is higher than the preset temperature. Thats why the chiller "chills faster".
Whereas the higher flowrate managed to reached a temperature closer to yr tank temperature. That explains why it takes longer to chill and heat as well.
