They did a time comparison both ways. +1 vs. empty chamber. The empty chamber won because there was no need to flip the safety lever on the +1.
The Israeli's , both military and civilians practice this method because it's safer while walking around in crowds.

You are missing the point of this thread. It is not about carrying empty chamber vs loaded chamber. It is about carrying with a full magazine and a loaded chamber vs a magazine with one round short (from loading it into the chamber) and a loaded chamber.
