LDView seems to be slower then my editor while rotating but it does more eye candy (for some reason it doesn't display render speed on my system), but L3Lab reports ~9 seconds for rendering when the whole city is in view (had to figure out how to zoom first), so your system might even be faster. It basically comes down to your VGA card being somewhat recent (I have a Radeon 3870 512MB which is 'old' they say
)
Anyhow you are welcome to join the group of testers I send alpha versions to, as asked in this thread:

I'm hoping to fix a bug/issue this weekend in order to release the 2nd test version, next week / end of the month.
