I think some lower speeds could be squeesed out if i had logged out my girlfriend from her profile (freeing up ram, also if i had given photoshop more ram than 50 % to play with, but who knows, maybe not.

I am stunned by the big differences between somewhat older computers and the newest! I always thought that a CPU that had twice the Megaherz, only made a 40-50% speed difference at the most.
My system (P4 1.8, 1.5 GB RAM, PS CS, W2k) runs this test in 140 seconds.
But since I never use this filter (radial blur) I have a question for those who use Focus Magic as their primary sharpening tool. I like FocMagic a lot, best of the bunch i.m.h.o. BUT... it is slow and it doesn't batch. So sharpening hundred D60 files eats up lots of seconds
Would anybody with a somewhat faster system and having Focus Magic 3 run a test for me?
Please sharpen a 6-8 MP file ("out of focus blur" set for both 2 and 3 pixels at 100%, since 3 pixels is much slower than 2 pixels).
My timings: 2 pixels: 14 seconds and 3 pixels: 73 seconds. 16 or 8 bits doesn't make a difference.
Thanks in advance!

1.25 gig, so should be ok. Anyways, Im new to Mac. Just converted from Windows and have to say, it will save me hours in the lack of hassel and for always working I suspected XP was retarded, I just never new how badly until now. I had a IBM notebook, 1.7 Ghz centrino, way slower than my iMac.
Imagine, one box, one power cable, plug it in and it all works. No keyboard cables, etc, no IRQ hassels, no monthly re-installs.. all great so far!

I think your number was a typo, please correct it .
Guys,
Why Dothan/Banias contender not showing-up .
I doubt the info is a "typo" ... pretty confident in the dual 2.5ghz G5 system... it screams in PS CS. My friend has this with the full 8GB RAM... I believe his speed was around 18 sec. or so.

Glazier, that is really fast for your P4 1.6!
My P4 1.8 gives 140 sec.
Steve F also has 140 sec with a P4 1.8
John P times 145 sec on a P4 1.6.
W2000 or XP doesn't seem to make much difference, nor the amout of RAM ( in this test ofcourse).
Clearly you are doing something really right! Please give us a detailed description of your setup so we can learn from you
