On my system, processing a selection with 4440 words spanning 288 lines over 7 pages, of which 456 separate words were bold, took just 2 seconds, as did reversing the process. That seems fast enough for me.

While Greg's code will probably do what you want, my approach avoids any potential interference with whatever other formatting your content might already have (including double-strikethrough).
