The batch file works perfectly. Thanks!
I semi-realized earlier that the bottleneck was somewhere in the copying between the Eclipse workspace and the root directory of the server and I tried creating the project in the root directory and running lzx files directly from the browser. The problem was that Eclipse wasn't too happy about this and there were a number of issues. Anyway, this solution works well. Thanks again.

Actually, I've been told by Max Carlson that, quote:
One reason it takes a long time is because the is the current design does not work directly with the local file system. Instead, a compressed file is uploaded to the server via HTTP. This is great for remote development, but far from ideal when the web server is on the same machine.
End quote.
Basically, it has to zip everything up, copy it all up to the same machine, unzip everything, and replace everything. A heck of a lot of unneeded work. Our solution around this problem was to use the "external tools" feature of eclipse to run a batch file, and the batch file just uses xcopy to copy the files:
xcopy /d /e /y /s /i "%userprofile%\workspace\app\src\*" "C:\Program Files\OpenLaszlo Server 3.3\Server\lps-3.3\app\src\"
start "" "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" "http://localhost:8080/lps-3.3/app/src/source/main.lzx?lzr=swf8&debug=true"
It speeds things up enough to make eclipse actually usable for us.

I'm using IDEforLaszlo and for some reason launching any lzx file

the URL of the file in a web browser, it runs in around 2-3
seconds. I was
wondering if any one else might have encountered this problem
This is because Eclipse is a big and ponderous thing.
Wouldn't a lightweight Laszlo IDE be a wonderful thing?
