Quote - 1. I've noticed some talk about P8 rendering faster than PPro, even though 8 doesn't have the 64-bit render engine.

The biggest single improvement is the smarter multiprocessing.  If you have a multi-core machine, on average your renders will complete many times faster, because the old multiprocessing scheme was dumb.

Quote - 2. Does it work better with DAZ V4 and M4 generation content?

The short answer is yes, even in an external library.

No opinion on the other two questions, since I only use one monitor and I never bothered with Poser Pro (still don't see a reason for it now).  Feature-wise, Poser 8 has many more attractive features than Poser Pro, except maybe queued renders.
