I timed the difference at the time I wrote it and there was a huge time difference. It’s not forced up on you which one to choose. You use what works for you.

To cut the time you spend? It adds the same amount of time to open it in a new tab, read, and comment as it does to not use the Preview link. Using the Preview Greasemonkey script, I save time reading the original post within my feed reader, commenting, and moving on to the next in my feed reader. No opening tabs, waiting for them to load, finding them in my tab queue (I often open a lot at the same time and then go to the end of the queue and read them one by one and comment or close them to save time – time I no longer have to spend), reading, commenting, and closing and returning back to my feed reader.
Maybe I’m missing your point. Using this Greasemonkey script, no more opening sites in new tabs. I open them within Google Feed Reader.

Hey Lorelle, have you tried Feedly? It’s integrated with Google Reader and I find it to be much more efficient and pleasant to use. The various magazine-like layouts are visually delectable. Give it a shot, I highly recommend it. Thanks for the good read.

@ Sam: Plugin? This is a Greasemonkey Script that works in FireFox browsers only. If you restarted your FireFox browser and you are using the latest, unstable version of FireFox, Greasemonkey will occasionally not work due to the automatic upgrades. I use the Nightly Test Tools FireFox Extension to override compatibility version issues. You might have turned off Greasemonkey by mistake, too. I've done that. Google Feed Reader might also have updated or changed something, which means that that script author will have to update the script accordingly. It works for me without any problems right now. Other than that, you have to check in with Greasemonkey and the author of the Greasemonkey Script for help on this. It still works for me consistently.

Lorelle!! I’ve been using this plugin since I saw this post. I am absolutely in LOVE!

Then, I opened my reader this morning (Aug 24) and it no longer works. I tried to reinstall it and I got nothing.

Any suggestions?
