Fishes slow it down by deliberating over their cards and more of them staying in a hand that they shouldn't which means less hands per hour.

Sharks generate more rake.
Yep without a doubt. Check out some of the high stakes pokerstars ring games. Some of these players are playing 10+ tables, all hitting max rake every hand. Their daily rake is in the 1000's. AA is constantly cracked due to bad play - how to you make a statistical variable for bad play? AA is cracked more in limit games than no-limit games because its more difficult to push a player off a hand. Small stake games it is difficult to push a player off a hand because many are just playing for a gamble.

I dont know the statistical win ratio for AA after the flop but if 10 players all call to see the flop, I dont think AA would have more than a 20% chance. I get worried holding AA with 2 callers, With 9 callers you are favorite but its odds on that your premium hand will be cracked
