And your point is?
100 invocations of a subordinate shell and 100 initializations and
invocations of Python will take time, no matter what 'cmd' is or how
fast Python executes it.
I got interested, and tried Perl:
The exact same statement in Perl goes 5 times faster!!!
....*including* the 'do shell script' overhead!!
(do shell script "perl -e " & quoted form of cmd)
PS: ....and MY point is simply that I'll continue with Perl, rather
than Python, for my uses...
