I finished my PhD almost 30 years ago, and finding the motivation to actually finish was as much of a problem as it is today. And tinkering with typesetting was a familiar procrastination magnet. My friends who used LaTeX easily tacked multiple months onto their effort, and my hunch is that CPU time was not the limiting factor.

My advice is: Remember, nobody's going to read it.

My parents' theses were about 50 pages, typewritten, equations and chemical diagrams entered by hand. The got the same grade as I did. ;-)
