Greg-- 

These are very interesting! We know that running InDesign minimized whenever possible improves performance (there are some things, unfortunately, that require that the application be maximized/activated to work properly--such as paste/paste into), but it's nice to have actual benchmarks. 

re: little difference between CPU speeds 

I don't think anything "weird" is going on, but I would expect a speed increase going to 1.7 GHz. Not a linear increase, but an increase. Text composition is one of the most CPU-intensive, time-consuming tasks we can ask InDesign to do, and it's just going to take time to perform. 

Want to post your script? There might be a few things we can do to improve performance (setting display options before running the calculations might help, for example). 

Thanks, 

Ole
