Just buy a pair of SSDs, I can recommend Crucial M4 128Gb.
My old box (Intel Core Duo E8300 2.9 Mz from 2008) with XP and 4Go RAM is still
happy, and it seems for long now... :o)
The disk subsystem has always been the bootleneck, not only on Windows...
The complete test takes me 32 minutes. I think with a faster/newer CPU could be twice less. I don't care, changing the machines does
not worth it (all that to move again, pfew I get too old, thanks SSDs...)

Sorry, missed that. I've been away from ofbiz too long.
So welcome back, then !
The main reason is the ofbiz community is not paying attention to how
slow the software has gotten. It currently takes my desktop 1 hour to
run a full test suite. clean, load-demo(30m), run-tests(30m). It
used to take 12-15m. This has caused me to not do much, as it takes
to long to do anything.
Hard disk speed is what helps. With my high-speed SATA RAID array I can build a fresh checkout and load demo data in less than 5
minutes. Ant clean-data plus ant load-demo takes 4 minutes. The tests take 25 minutes - but that is mainly due to the many timing
loops involved. A faster computer will not solve that.
