iPhoto, according to a lot of the people here who use it often, tends to be quite slow in general no matter what the CPU. I played with it a little bit but personally I didn't notice that much of a slowdown. Of course, I didn't import a gazillion pictures into it so I don't really know how bad the slowdown is.
I have finally had the opportunity to use Picasa for more than a few minutes and it's actually very good. I think choice is great and I do hope that Google would make it available for Mac users. They've already made it available to Linux users, but I don't like how they did this (through WINE). Hopefully they can produce a native version for Linux as well as the Mac soon.
