What this implies is that your AppleScript applet is running in Classic.
This penalizes it for several reasons: first, Classic is essentially an
"emulation mode" and has to go through several bottlenecks to communicate to
the Mac OS X host; and second, all AppleEvents sent from your applet have to
cross the Classic/Mac OS X barrier each time.
Select your applet in the Finder, choose Get Info, and see if the "Open in
the Classic environment" box is checked. If it is, uncheck it. Then report
results.
