Ignore the 10% CPU hit thing, it's something that BoincTasks's reports but comparing the CPU Time to Runtime there isn't anything larger than a few seconds difference so I dunno where BoincTaks's gets the 90% CPU usage metric from.

I have a M1 Macbook Air (the 8 core GPU one) currently doing PPSE (which has to be translated via Rosetta since it's not native for ARM), and it seems to have a 10% CPU time hit.
You can see the tasks I'm currently doing here for timing.
Before PPSE I had it doing GFN-17 MEGA and I want to say the average turn around was 20-25ish minutes.
I've seen more impressive numbers with the Max, Pro, and Ultra's however.

My personal goal is to see how far up the leader board I can get for 321 SV before June of 2022 (which at the moment is the estimated completion date).
From rough calculations it seems like I will get the Double Bronze in around 100 days, and then Double Silver 100 days from that, so it stands to reason that I might be able to get at least Double Gold before 321 SV ends.

General discussion :
Run Time VS CPU Time?
(Message 137587)
Posted 1210 days ago by Chase Tarson
Run Time is the amount of time the workunit has been running.
CPU Time is the amount of time the CPU has actively been working on the workunit.
As these workunits are using the idle cycles of the CPU, throughout the day there are other processes that will take the CPU time from the workunit, so you'll see Run Time being longer than the CPU Time.
