Now that I see that there are two ways to adjust the front suspension, I wonder which one of them (rebound speed OR firmness) is more important for bike performance.

I would go as firm as possible and adjust the rebound to slow. Rebound on slow stops the fork reacting as fast to bumps and seems to stop the bike from bobbing quite as much.
