I have used Canon 1Ds Mk. II and even with my MacBook Pro, it was slow when processing RAW files.
Raw from a consumer-level DSLR is going to be a bit less demanding; for another data point, I've got a Rebel XTi and my older notebook (2ghz 1st gen Core 2 Duo; present one is 2.4ghz/2nd gen Core 2 Duo) was comfortably fast for anything I've done in RAW. How complicated the maniplulations you use are may be another factor; I'm not doing tons of layers or complicated masking.
