I would have naively expected it to be ~2x faster...

Yes, but a cutoff of 10 in a GB simulation is really quite horrible. The
electrostatic interactions are far too long-range for 10 A to be a
reasonable cutoff.

Well there are no computational performance implications of applying
either position restraints or constraints.
