			Your personal timeframe just happens to be greatly accelerated because you are so much in love with FF. Hence the subjective speed gains.

			I'm using the release version of FF on a MacBook (1.8, 2 gigs RAM). I just learned that JPEGs render much quicker than TIFFs! This is usually obvious, but in this case (using a 4mp digital camera image, less than 2 megs), the TIFF output took maybe an hour. The JPEG only a minute or so.
 
			The resulting TIFF was twice as large as the JPEG (5.6 vs. 11.1 megs), but this alone can't account for the speed difference. I continue to experiment! Digital imaging blog & software discounts

			Maybe this is caused by the fact that Filter Forge reuses rendered preview blocks. For example, if you have the entire preview area rendered, the saving/applying will be instant.
