It isn't the cooking time that's reduced. It's the time for the dough to rise. "Fast-Acting" yeast causes the dough to rise a little bit faster (it's usually advertised as being one-half of regular but I haven't found that to be the case). Once the dough has risen, the baking time is just the same for either regular or fast-acting yeast. I stopped using fast-acting yeast because it didn't seem like I got the same "rise" (ie, air infusion into the dough) that I got with regular yeast and the amount of rising time wasn't shortened enough to make the compromise worth it.
