Yep. With almost any desktop application you can imagine, unless it's
written *very* poorly, the amount of time spent waiting for the user to
do something is a couple orders of magnitude larger than the time spent
actually doing processing. Desktop applications are only serving one
user and he's as slow as a human, it's different from a server
supporting a zillion requests from all and sundry.
