PT Performance on new Quad-Core Macbook Pros

Hi all-

I was just hired to edit and mix my first feature film. I'm thinking about going for the new Macbook Pro in a 15". On my current dinosaur (2006 Macbook Pro 15" / 2ghz Intel Core Duo / 2 GB RAM) I get about 18% CPU system usage for 8 tracks with EQ and Comp on each.

Any ideas how much better the new MBPro's would be?

Thanks!
Max
