This test is a real-world task relevant to Adobe Photoshop: batch convert raw files to JPEG. Disk I/O is not a significant factor for any of these machines.

Raw file conversion to JPEG — 50-megapixel Canon CR2 raw

The 2018 MacBook Pro looks solid here, only a few percent behind the 2017 iMac 5K. That said, with 6 CPU cores, one might hope for more, since the 2017 iMac 5K has only 4 CPU cores.

The 2015 MacBook Pro (and by implication the 2016 and 2017 MacBook Pro) all lag, taking 25% longer. Thus the 2018 MacBook Pro is a solid win for raw conversion of Canon CR2 raw.
