Sawmill is actually faster, just more click-intensive (but not by much).

Are you sure? Ivy is 70/80K an hour, and maybe a peak to 100K.
So sawmill must at least have the same exp rate, wich is, I think, almost impossible...then again, I didn't do any calculations about it.

The thing with ivy, from my experience, is that it obviously depends on how much attention you pay to it (if you pay full attention, you'll get more experience per hour, obviously...).

However, Ivy is something that takes longer to cut, more similar to yews than say, willows or teaks. It can take a little while to cut down your next ivy piece (not a log).

So, your rates will vary. I personally have seen (at above 90 Wc) getting 2-3k xp in 5 minutes, and getting 10k xp in 5 minutes. It averages out to be ~80k xp per hour in the 90s from what I've seen. And at lower levels, 65-75k probably. It won't be a constant stream of experience like what you can get from willows and teaks (since you cut logs at a more constant rate).

I was watching lost on Hulu and got about 90k xp in an hour and half, so thats 60k an hour.  I have a d hatchet too.  Maybe you'd get more if you paid more attention, but I had sound on to tell when I stopped cutting, so its not like I was not chopping for any extended amount of time.  I think where you chop ivy is more variable to experience, because some places like Varrock, are always crowded.  
Even when I pay attention cutting Ivy I've never gotten over 70k xp in an hour.

Here are some of my results (84 WC'ing with Dragon Hatchet):

071487 @  6:45
090067 @  7:00
098420 @  7:10
104737 @  7:15
112385 @  7:25
132667 @  7:40
137987 @  7:45
146965 @  7:55
152617 @  8:00
157272 @  8:05
160265 @  8:10
177222 @  8:25
180547 @  8:30

215127 @  9:00
229092 @  9:15
241395 @  9:30
255692 @ 10:00

Of course the number to the left is total XP then the number to the right is at time intervals of time. I.E. 9:30 is 9:30 (or 2130) at night.

Thread is from last year .. ^ :P.

80-85k/hr with beaver, adze, and lumberjack outfit seems to be an average of mine.
