If offline, the grater should be much faster.
If you launch Activity Monitor from Utilities and from its window menu select CPU Monitor you should see all CPUs spinning up on an offline bounce

Offline of course. realtime would be the same exact times on both machines every time

By this month hopefully the iMac Pro will be right on time for that purpose!
