Multi-robot authoring can reduce completion time by distributing drawing work, but the resulting speedup depends on task structure and the allocation-routing pipeline. We investigate these relationships by representing drawings as geometric stroke graphs and comparing component-level (single-token) allocation with shared-token (decomposed) allocation, which permits multiple robots to work within a connected component. A simulation study of 385 drawings and teams of one to eight robots shows diminishing speedup gains under single-token allocation and larger mean speedups under the shared-token pipeline, each normalized by its own single-robot completion time. Shared-token execution also exhibits lower idle-time shares at larger team sizes, although it does not reduce completion time for every drawing. Comparisons across structural attribute groups reveal associations between structural descriptors and differences in scaling behavior, with greater separation between several attribute groups at larger team sizes. These findings characterize empirical scaling in the evaluated pipelines and highlight the importance of considering within-component workload and graph structure alongside component count.
