For whatever it’s worth, I use Adobe Bridge for culling / selecting what to process, then PhotoShop (mostly) for processing - I tried LightRoom briefly, but it takes way too long to get started. Bridge starts showing thumbnails immediately (sounds like what we are all after). The new Mac shows thumbnails possibly twice as fast, which is pleasant.

Bridge gives me ranking from one to five stars, plus coloured labels. After a first pass I can filter to be more particular - show me just the 3 and 4 star red images, for example. I imagine you get the same kind of facilities in the tools you use, too.
