Smart Identification is a process of uniquely identifying gui objects within an application in case QTP discovers that there are multiple objects with the same description as mentioned in the object repository.
 
Smart IDentification when enabled, will try to keep a track of certain properties for an object apart from the ones mentioned in the obj rep. These will be used only if the smart identification of the object is required as mentioned above.

The time typically required for smart identification is very high. This (from practical example) may take between 10 - 20 times the original time, but maybe relative to the application under test.

Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Aditya.

there are 3 stages of Object Identification in OR..

1.  first QTP will check the mandatory properties and assistive properties
2. Smart Identification : if QTP is not able to Identify Objects based these properties it will go for Smart Identification ( Here we should enable Smart Identification in Object Identification Dialog Box ). here QTP will ignore all the recorded description. and it will check each and every property uniquely.
3. still QTP is not able to recognize objects then it will go for Ordinal Identifier. Here QTP will check for Index property or Location Property ( What ever we given Object Identification dialog Box ). At the time of recoding QTP will give one Index number to each Object. it must be unique. ( some time Index may same...in this situation we can Index property to Location Property.
4. creation time is only for browser and page
   

          This is totally about Object Identification
