In general, the ability to write OpenStudio Measures will increase speed by automating tedious tasks (lots of example ruby code on this site). I've found that OS has greatly improved in the past year or so such that most commonly encountered HVAC systems are now available in the app without having to write an EnergyPlus Measure. The place where I believe it's lacking is in the availability of custom reports (e.g. LEED) for quickly documenting results, but Reporting Measures could be written to automate that.
