If you read the replies to your original post you will notice that many other Macs do not display this problem. On my 2.66 Intel Core i7 MacBook Pro I get timings under 1.6 sec. Murray Eisenberg's 2.26 GHz MacBook took about 1.9 seconds. So, whatever the problem is, it does not look like a general Mac and Mathematica issue.
