Reports that slice sampler is quite slow - makes sense that it is slower than the NUTS sampler but it is also a lot slower than the one in HDDM. I believe this is because in HDDM we tuned the slice sampler parameters so that they were much more effective for DDM (and it seemed to work fine for other SSMs/ LANs), so one very simple thing to do is to just reuse the slice params from HDDM to be default for HSSM slice.

First tests do not show any significant impact of setting slice widths per parameter.
More testing required.
