Medium`compSpeeds` UpdateFixed

The implemented internal method `Comptroller.setCompSpeedInternal` does not update the related `cToken` market staking indexes. Changing the value of "Comp token distribution speed" for a specific market without updating its supply and borrow indexes will lead the users to either gain more or less Comp reward.

Low`_grantComp` Insufficient BalanceFixed

The `Comptroller._grantComp` method only succeeds when the amount requested is less than or equal to the remaining `Comptroller` Comp balance, as implemented in `Comptroller.grantCompInternal`. However, when the amount is more than that, the method fails silently without emitting an event or throwing. As consequence, this issue could lead a governance proposal to pass without throwing.
