If you use PS2 for near solving the time taken to solve will depend entirely on how close to the target you land. It uses a spiral search so every time it moves out a layer the number of index files it uses to solve increases significantly. I found with mine if it was within a degree or two it solved fairly quickly, and then a little further out it was slow and a bit more again was basically unusable.

Using ASPS your pixel size needs to be right and the focal length needs to be very close to spot on. It is worth using the settings assistant to check that you have your focal length bang on as it can make a big difference to time taken for a blind solve using ASPS or even solving at all.
