just switched from pc, and i am starting to really like osx. however, the slow speed at which the delete/backspace deletes text while holding down the delte key is a little annoying. is there any way to increase the text delete speed? thanks in advance.

In System Preferences -> Keyboard, increase the key repeat rate.
