Rough Compilation Speed Comparison
To get a general sense of how fast a machine is for Xcode compilation I use Adium.
It is large and complex enough to tax most machines at least a bit.
My Mid 2012 2.7GHz i7 Retina Mac Book Pro does it in around 1m42s (user + sys) [real ~ 27s].
My Late 2014 4.0GHz i7 Retina iMac does it in around 1m11s (user + sys) [real ~ 18.165s].
