PhotoLab 8: Performance Improvements? Better on Apple Silicon?

I tested Photolab 8’s Deeprime XD2s on both my five year old Win PC (i7-8700 CPU, 16GB memory, AMD 6650XT GPU) and the new Mac Mini M4 (24GB/512GB) using the Egypt and Nikon (5 images) raw files. To my big surprise, here are the results (both fresh install):

M4 Pro (Neural engine): Egypt 24s, 5 images Nikon 1 minute 20s.
M4 Pro (GPU): Egypt 22s, 5 images Nikon 1 minute 12s.
Win PC: Egypt 14s, 5 images Nikon 27s.
