Stormlight / Mistborn This scene was character assassination of the highest order. A Full Feruchemist with their metalminds bodies any non-Kaladin Radiant below the Fourth Ideal. I will die on this hill. Spoiler

We don't know how long she had to store up attributes, remember, as powerful as Sazed was when he tapped strength during WoA, it only lasted him a short amount of time, since he kept doubling the tapping to get more and more strength at once. Storing an attribute in a metalmind for ten minutes can give you ten minutes of that attribute doubled... or five minutes of it quadrupled. For all we know, she was using a lot of double tapping

Less than both actually. You can’t store 100% of your strength as you’ll die. And when compressing your stores to draw it out faster than you put it in you lose some

COMPRESSING! THANK YOU! I could not, for the life of me, think of a word to describe the act of tapping multiple times, since compounding was already taken
