This code runs in 5 ticks on my computer:
on mouseUp
put ticks() into t
put empty into tTest
repeat 64000
put "t" after tTest
end repeat
put ticks() - t
end mouseUpSince that's appending a single character 64,000 times, I assume it's a worst-case scenario. Can you post the actual code you're using, and what performance you're seeing?

I have a preferences file that is fairly large (30K+), and it's created on-the-fly using "append string" functions, e.g.
put "this data and that data..." after thePrefs
put "some more data..." after thePrefs
put "even more data..." after thePrefs
This is getting slower than I'd like, and it appears that the slowdown is because the append functions are getting slow. I'm guessing that RunRev is reallocating memory on each append, then copying the existing string and the appended string into the newly allocated memory. And because I have lots of little appends this really slows things down (and no, there's no way to make the appends longer and therefore fewer...).
