Some tests here. For what is worth (given the different GUI vs.
command-line strategies, and the different versions of LaTeX and
packages), I have also added the times reported by OS X Textures in
the TeX Log window.
Summary first:
MacBook 2.16 GHz, 2 GB RAM
==========================
- LaTeX as installed by MacTeX:

Then the gory details:
