I've got a script running which:
1) creates a Finder list of files in a given folder (numbering in the
thousands)
2) opens each file for access sequentially
3) reads the file into a variable
4) and if the text contains a given string, adds this text to a
FileMaker Pro database (in a nested tell)
All working just fine. The thing I don't get: it's MUCH faster when
I've got the script open in Script Editor, than when I save it as a
compiled app and launch it. Makes no sense to me. Why is this
happening?
Thanks,
Jeff
