Default Exactly what roll does diameter play in speed?

I been testing a lot of props on a Jett and I keep hearing that pitch is where you will get the speed and I understand the logic behind that statement. But I know diameter has to play a role in the configuration somewhere. For instance I got a better GPS speed reading going to 10x6 from 9x7 back in the early stages of testing. Is the answer use as much pitch as possible while still maintaining the rpms? or does diameter play another role as well?

Thanks,

Z
