If I was using a Slinky, would waves travel to the other end faster if the slinky was stretched out or closer together?

Question

I think that transverse waves would go faster (like waves on a string), but that longitudinal waves would travel at the same celerity.

I think the waves would go faster if the slinky was closer together.
