All I can say is that after my experience with ice, I added ten to fifteen knots to the approach speed anytime wing de/anti-ice was needed on the 737s.

I could NEVER understand the Boeing idea. There they had this nice big heater right there in the tail [the APU] that they could've easily adapted, but chose not to to save a few bucks. Oh well................
