I visited the Pearson website and the customized connecting guide mentions picking up and dropping off luggage. Is this really required?

I don't think it is such a terrible requirement. Just want to know how much time to plan for the connection.
You meant ORD-YYZ-TPE-BKK right?

I think 2 hours is enough, but yes 4.5 hours is much safer

BTW, when are you doing the trip?
There's rumor that EVA will move to T1 eventually since it's *A Terminal
If your trip is far away in 2014, I'm sure it'll all transfer within T1 then

PP T3 lounge will stay open till CX/BR flight leaves
It's very nice lounge (I used it in July) and has many hot food
so I liked it better than PP USA or PP Int' or Int'l MLL in T1

Enjoy EVA flight
Probably should eat more food before you board, RL food isn't that much, but it is a 1~2 am flight
