Redacteur 4 is _very_ fast, at least on a TT8. If  you are interested in writing long texts,
eg books/articles/theses, it has everything. Nice macros, outliner, good dictionaries, very
complete word count facilities etc. 
It is not so good for printing - it is definitely not a semi-DTP prog. But it is plenty good
enough for professional letters and so on.
