Elite is slower. Sure the signs post the same wait but since I gave up on elite I have not waited five minutes. Just the volume of lanes makes main faster IMHO. (and seriously I find that the "general public" in Atlanta does a better job at security. Maybe it is because they have not assumed "2 items means I can also bring a few extra bags". Who knows, buy I am sticking to main security)
And I always avoid TSA "black diamond". The 'expert flyers' last flew in 1986 LOL
