It is wonderful but if you are talking about efficient fast workflow for hundreds of images at days end try LR before you outsource. OK now ready for being blasted about how wonderful PS is. At that time I was dealing with single images though. Even then it was magic compared to PS speed at the time. PS I have been a LR use since 1.0 beta (that was free). It handles large amounts of images like magic and allows for culling of the bad and processing of the good like magic. LR is an industry workhorse for a reason. That is not 95% of the RE photographer out there. Yes of course there are those expert high end users that use PS for some real magic. You never have to leave LR to do anything normal. LR auto stack by capture time combined with their HDR exposure blending puts everything else to shame. I have yet to see something that is faster where normal RE photo workflow is concerned.
so i think one of the best things you could do even to speed up performance on a i5 dual processor or similar is to update to new solid state drives both internal and external - also a big help is to keep your internal and external drives lean so offload finished and stored files to somewhere else PS runs smooth and quick with no more random pauses and then saving back to LR is almost instant.
an ssd - super fast from owc.com and also updated to a new external ssd - a Crucial internal 1 tb with an enclosure case and everything is so fast i am shocked i didn’t do the upgrade internal sooner! i use large files from my d800 and imports from cars are like 5-8mins for close to 64 gb of data (used to be like 2o or so mins lol) importing raws from external into LR is super fast and exporting as layers - sometimes up to 20 or so images is like a third of the time it used to take. and i ended up going with a slightly newer 2015 macbook pro 15 i7 quad core maxed out ram but it had an updated internal hard drive. at least 16gb ram - multiple cores and i7 at least but i have worked on an older macbook pro 2013 for yrs and recently had to get a new one due to smashing my screen with my phone on accident. i would add that starting with a robust computer is always good.
