Drill Press RPM's

So I'm just about ready to start drilling some pin holes in my first know and I'm wondering what drill speed I need to use? The chart I'm looking at says 3000 RPM's but that seems a little high. I'm using a 1/8" bit to go through 1/8" thick 1095. What speed should I use?

Also, is there a helpful resource for figuring this out for other bit sizes?
