How long does it take you guys to rip/compress/burn a blu-ray? I know it varies between systems but I'm just looking for an average. Thinking of building a new PC just for faster speeds if it would be significant (Currently running an antiquated p4 2.6 OC'd to 3.1 with only 1 GB RAM). So, how long to rip a dual layer disc and compress/burn it to a single layer disc?

The only procedure that's really related to PC speed is the compression process. It takes me about five hours to convert a 25GB+ BD disc to a 7.95GB DL MKV data disc using RipBot. That's on a quad core 3.6Ghz computer. When I used a 2.5Ghz quad core, conversions took about six hours or so.
Ripping takes whatever time your BD drive takes to read the disc, 40 - 50 minutes. Burning a disc is the same, whatever your burner speed/media speed is. If you are burning directly to BDRW, just takes the ripping time and burning time if the movie will fit directly on a BD disc. ImgBurn can do that.
You also asked about DL>SL disc conversions? I use DVDShrink for that after decrypting. Shrink takes about a half hour or less, depending on the DVD source size, for the whole process.
The amount of RAM you have doesn't have much bearing on ripping, converting or burning. But I use 2GB for XP and 4GB for Vista. With these type of conversions, especially to H.264 (MKV), a fast quad core will help considerably to shorten encoding time.
