The testing time depends on (in order of deceasing importance),
- The number of active cores running the tests. On new BIOSs multi-threading is possible. On old ones maybe not.
- How much RAM is being tested
- CPU speed
- Free of Pro edition (the Pro edition as a couple of extra tests).
- The RAM speed
This assumes you have all tests turned on, and are running a fixed number of passes.
