@jerry One thing others haven't mentioned yet is it depends a bit an what you mean by “slow”. In my experience, a nice, beefy desktop will absolutely reduce the time for exporting and other expensive operations. It might take things that took 30s down to 10s or something like that. But if you mean slow in the sense that it's sluggish and frustrating to use, because alot of little things just take – like – half a second, that seems to never really go away. Not sure why, but the Adobe products just always seem to “feel” slow, no matter the hardware.
