Your tests show about 2 times speed difference on this script, only. On the script I sent, the speed difference I mention is definetly a whole lot more than that. On the order of 10 times and above, I am estimating.

I while ago I wanted to optimize my FMP scripts, and I noticed that different methods of calling the scripts resulted in different speeds. So I ran a bunch of time trials.


set theTicks to current date
tell application "Finder"
   repeat 500 times
       make new file at "Macintosh HD:temp:"
   end repeat
end tell
display dialog ((current date) - theTicks)

Granted, this time trial script doesn't call FMP directly, so it's just testing the general speed of a script from being called in different ways:

use "run script" command from FMP 6
embed script in FMP 10
run within script editor 10
run from Script menu 11
as app run from FMP 20
as app 25
send "do Script" apple event (launched classic)
