From my point of view, it depends on what you're trying to do.
I'm presently messing about with an older, one-piece box - might have started off as a 5400, but I suspect much lower. This is for a fellow MUG member, to replace his 6200, running at a whopping 75 mghz , including the cache. Into the older one-piece box, I've shoved in the board from a 6400, running at 200 mghz, with a 256k cache card. So far, so good, but we'll really need to increase the RAM to see a decent improvement. This is in hand.
Earlier tonight, I gave the machine a go - only 72 mb RAM (2 x 32, plus 8 on the board - these being the 168 pin sticks), to see what happened.
iTunes 2.0.4 took forever to import only 4 tracks, but did burn them successfully - fairly sure the RAM upgrade will help over this.
Using Toast Lite, just to see what would happen, burned a copy of the System Folder. Very, very fast indeed. The resulting CD is of no real use at all, apart from possibly replacing buggered extensions, etc. This was only an experiment, anyway, but does give some indication of the capabilities and abilities of Toast.
All the foregoing is on the older, one-piece box, running OS 9.2.2, which it can't do anyway, but that's another story!

A silly question probably but: Do you need to use Toast? If the iMac can see it and probably burn using the Apple software, is it not just a case of using different software? I personally never use Toast which I have just chucked off my computer and I find the Apple stuff perfectly adequate.
