This is very annoying when used in the context of a code versioning system which may fire repeated calls to opendiff if asked to diff the changes in an entire directory for example: it means I have to wait 1s before each diff gets displayed by FileMerge.

Have you ever used TextWrangler?

http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/

It includes a command-line tool called 'twdiff' that will open files
for comparison in TextWrangler. It's not FileMerge, but it might
launch more quickly for you. And who knows, you may prefer it to
FileMerge anyway!
