IMHO, it depends on the powder, and the barrel length.
If you are handloading, a faster burning powder should burn more completely in a shorty and probably give better velocity as well.
I have not observed any significant wear on the Surefire comp adaptors to this point.
I suspect that the suppressor itself will get hotter as the unburned powder combusts inside of it, and more wear will occur within the can. The degree of excessive wear will depend on the suppressor design and materials, as well as the degree of combustion of powder inside the can.
