Courses can really help pace of play with how they set their tee times. 10 minute intervals seems about right to me, 8 minutes is just to close and it seems those are the courses that are always backed up when I play.
Regarding balls, I spend way too much time looking for ones I lose (example, yesterday I lost 8 off the tee). I should say I am looking for a lost ball a lot, I won’t spend a lot of time actually looking though, just a quick search and then carry on. But I do tend to find a lot of balls which I then end up playing. Anecdotally this year my bag has slowly filled with Taylormade, I seem to be finding way more of them this year.
