Timo and Rahul told me that they experienced slight differences in execution speed of AppleScripts depending on how they have been saved. Now, some tests:
Testing equipment
- Machine: Heiko's MacBook Pro 15" 2.2GHz, 4GB, MacOS X 10.5.8
- Script:
set vorher to current date
set t to 231
tell application "Finder"
activate
repeat t times
set n to make new Finder window
tell n to close
end repeat
set nachher to current date
set dauer to nachher - vorher
log dauer
display dialog "Dauer: " & dauer & " Sekunden." buttons {"Doh!"}
end tell
Testergebnisse

Bottom line
Applications are damn slow, every other variant is equally fast.
