Since I used Java on a my jailbroken iPhone, I should be able to do some rewrites for use on a Netbook; however battery life and internet connections are still a concern.

All of the OPR and DPR calculations I've done were practically instantaneous... but, I'm generally working with local data. Considering how powerful the average Android phone is, I'd say it shouldn't take more than 10 seconds -- quick to the point where it would probably take more power to download the data than to calculate the scores locally.
I'd say that your matrix library is either awfully inefficient or you don't have local data to work with...
