Would stuffing your smoker with food make the cooking time longer?

i want to buy a smoker where i could be able to smoke two turkeys for thanksgiving. the current smoker that i own is a charcoal/wood smoker and it takes about avg 10-12 hours. i found a propane gas powered smoker that would fit two birds and more. my question: if i stick two 14lb birds in one smoker, how long would it take to cook? what if i add a couple racks of ribs to it as well?Would stuffing your smoker with food make the cooking time longer?
I smoked a 20 lb turkey in a charcoal smoker, i took it out after 18 hours and finished it in the oven.

Smoking is supposed to take long....if you want it done faster, you are cooking, not smoking. Use 2 smokers, 1 bird in each.lWould stuffing your smoker with food make the cooking time longer?
yes stuffing it would make it take longer...how much?? not sure probably not enough to matter.......
