it's hard to say - definitely - one way or the other.
i think it would depend a lot on how often a quilter used each method compared to the other.
i'm not at all fast using either method.
my results are not spectacular either way, either. LOL

i can usually get one done in less time doing a basic cross-hatch than i can doing FMQ.
i use a "domestic" machine, though.
if i had a long-arm rig i assume that [after lots of practice] FMQ would go much faster than straight lines & curves on the regular machine.

anybody want to donate $30 - 50k so i can test my theory? LOL
