As far as I believe, for ultimating Magicians specifically, the breakdown is as follows:
Bishop: No contest. Leafre Skele mini-dungeon, due to Holy-weak, fast spawn on an easily maneuvered map.
I/L ArchMage: Again, no contest. With nothing weak to Ice in the Time Temple, you're going to go from Newties to Skeles as you become stronger.
F/P ArchMage: Here's where it differs. As Cyanne said, you can party with another attacker on the bottom lane while you nuke the top. This is a fantastic way to train if you're an F/P that can 2hko or ohko the Guardian Captain's of Regret (99,000 HP), which for the average 14-15x F/P is not difficult. That being said, for F/Ps capable of ohkoing Skeles, I have no doubt in my mind it'll be faster for us to train in The Restoring Memory mini dungeon.
Do I wish I could train in Time Temple? Hells yes. But the maps are too large and the spawn too spread out to make it worthwhile later on.
Hope that helps!
P.S.: Time Temple is a godsend to non-Mages who can't find a party and have to solo. Training alone in the Time Temple as a weapon attack class beats any solo training elsewhere as far as I'm aware, so don't be too fazed then next time you have trouble finding a party
