For more comparison, when I run the code (above) on my PowerBook G4 667 in OS X 10.2.6, it takes 1-2 seconds to find 224 apps in 528 folders.

And FWIW, with a newish installation and only 190 apps in that folder hierarchy, it takes about 1/4 second to list them on a G4 867 s/p.

set x to GetMilliSec
tell app "Finder" to name of application files in entire contents of folder "Applications" of startup disk
{count result, (GetMilliSec) - x}
--> {190, 240.0}
