Everyone says that you need lots of memory and this will make it quicker. When I look at the memory used for this process it does not appear that the scratch disk is being used as only about 70 MB is taken up.
From what I can see you are correct. The memory use is small

57 seconds
HP Pavillion zv5380us laptop
-Mobile Athlon 3400+ (Clawhammer)
-1 G PC 2700 RAM
-80 G hard drive
-'cool and quiet' enabled, too lazy to see if turning it off speeds it up.
I ran the test 3 times because on the first my virus scanner automatically updated. The fan started running halfway through the second pass, then on the third about 25% of the way through. FYI.

lots of ram will help but it's useless for photoshop after some point.
i think that point is 2gb and if you use more than that it will use the scratch disk although you have lots of ram left.

there are ton of factors that would go into this test I think, such as ram speed/amount, bus speed, processor, graphics card speed and rendering engine, etc.
i'm no expert by any means but i think it all has to do with a whole lot more than just what we are listing as our systems...but it is fun to see what everyone is using configuration wise and how we stack up.

Ok,
my turn, after having done a bit of a blurb - resizing it to 130mb file, I finally found the right way at least I think so..
for my Toshiba laptop Tecra S1 1.7Ghz M 1Gb ram 72s
desktop P IV 3.2Ghz 2Gb ram Matrox Parhelia 55s average over 5 runs with top and bottom taken out.
all running XP SP2 - the desktop had 63 threads running
well, this doesn't really look too good if I am suppose to process 1Ds files at 16bit, damn let alone a 1Ds MkII - I guess one just have to shoot better and spend less time infront of the beast

Yet we also have reports of a dual 3.2GHz Xeon with 4 GB running the operation in 18.7 seconds, and a quad 3.0GHz Xeon with 8 GB clocking in at 9.8 seconds. Something is not being reported correctly here.
