I haven't had too much time to play around with it, but it seems very fast and responsive. I did get to run Cinebench 9.5 on it.  Ya, I know, Cinebench 9.5 is ancient, but I've run it on all of my computers dating back to 2006 and it's really the only tool I have to compare them.  I'll be posting the graph soon, but at stock speed the new system scored a 2240 in the multi-CPU render test, compared to my previous best of 1775 on a Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 overclocked to 3.3 GHz and 957 on my current MacBook Pro with a 2.8 GHz Core 2.  I'm excited to get Premier installed on it and do some HD encoding!  I'm also looking forward to my attempt to push it to 4 GHz (and beyond?).
