They show that your tests are not measuring the speed of AppleScript but the time you wasted when encapsulating instructions having nothing to do with the Finder in a tell Finder block.

Doing that, you ask AppleScript to search in the Finder dictionnary for commands which are not Finder's ones so after wasting time, it search in Standard Additions dico.

I know that. The questions, though, are

1. Why does it happen on some Intel Macs, but not others?

2. Why does inserting "activate" into the code improve it on some Intel Macs, but not on others?
