- For Classic Textures (from the TeX Log window):

Not sure how these numbers should be interpreted. For example, if the  
DVI window (actually a resource fork) has already been created in  
Classic Textures, the typesetting seems faster. Be careful also in OS  
X Textures to disactivate Flash Mode (activated by default).

I had Mathematica opened, but not performing anything, at the time of  
the tests.
