I test them on a solo track mono'd, mix them using monitors and then play them back through the speakers in my house and then my truck. It's sort of a gauntlet. Life has taught me anything that sounds good solo will take over a mix and make it sound like mish mashed dishwater.

That's how I judge a sim - in its place in something I've already mixed and liked.
That sounds similar to what I do. I noted that you said "decent levels of gain" earlier. That often means maxed out on everything which I never do, but perhaps you really don't mean that. I'll PM with another question.

If things stick out in mix then compressor needs adjusted on mix or level adjusted
A compressor won't do any good for the kind of thing I wrote about. To get rid of the artifacts with level adjustment would be the same as muting the part. My solution is to replace the offending plugin if I cannot adjust it.
