I am using code similar to:
tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced" to tell document "my document" to tell layout "my layout" set n to count every record set x to {cell "field1", cell "field2",......} of every record end tell
Since upgrading to FileMaker 12, when the layout has a Found Set with a reasonable number of records (100-500) this sometimes responds instantly and sometimes locks up my FM client for many seconds or even minutes. The database is on a server, but the server is unaffected when accessed from another computer.
Some of the fields are in a related table, but it doesn't seem to matter whether this is specified with applescript (e.g. cell "table::fieldx") or as a calculation field in FileMaker (e.g. a calculation field with the value "table:fieldx").
Has anyone seen this behavior with FM12, and does anyone have a way to specify the applescript to avoid this?
