Hmm I seem to be misinformed. I totally forgot to think about pinyin. Apparently it's as fast or faster than english. For example, hitting "jtkqwrhyz" on your keyboard will give you "Jin-tian kong-qi wu-ran hen yan-zhong" which translates to "The air pollution is pretty severe today". I don't type in pinyin though.
