Tiemo, I ran the command directly on my Macos 12.4 laptop and it took about 20 seconds to generate the entire listing.
Is there specific information you are looking to obtain? You may be able to narrow the scope of the request and generate it faster.

I am retrieving MAC addresses: put "netstat -I" into myShell put shell(myShell) into tRes In former times that has taken "a few" seconds, now it takes around 20 seconds. First I tested, if it was a slowdown of LC 8/9, but in LC 6.7.10 it is almost the same 20 secs. I am not sure, when the decrease actually happened, but if it is not LC then it must be an issue of one of the latest MacOSs. Has anybody any idea, if I can optimize anything in the performance of this shell request? Could it be any permission issue in the new OS? Anything I could workaround, or do I have to take this shell call as it is? Thanks for any ideas Tiemo _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com<mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode --------------- Marc Siskin Manager, Modern Language Resource Center Carnegie Mellon University msis...@andrew.cmu.edu<mailto:msis...@andrew.cmu.edu> _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
