Hello...
I think this may have been covered here before,
so please forgive me...
I've been testing a new script of mine (a new Image Info) and was surprised
to find that it ran more than twice as long in all tests.
(Should be 0.05 sec, but was 0.12)
I have had AppleScript 1.7 installed for a few days (I'm aware of some of
it's idiosyncrasies), so I reverted back to 1.6, and the tests ran as
expected there, at the normal speed.
It ran fine too with AppleScript 1.8.2 beta, thank goodness,
with a plus - it actually ran a bit quicker.
So, can anyone tell me what is happening with 1.7 in this regard?
Is it the file/string coercion business? Is there a workaround solution?
Or even better, is there an available list of all the 1.7 problems (with
work arounds) to be had?
Many thanks if you can help...
David Lloyd
