Are you saying that replacing 4 chars is fast or should be fast? I can't make it fast. If it is suppose to be fast how do you do it?
on mouseUp put longString(100000) into x put the long seconds into a -- OS X timing only put "yyyy" into char 4444 to 4447 of x put the long seconds into b put b-a end mouseUp
function longString n
put empty into s
repeat n times
put "x" after s
end repeat
return s
end longString==> .000008
(Mmmm. This and single char are faster than last week, but the time grows slightly the first few times.)
You have to replace a char chunk with the same size string.
The timing test needs to be modified for Windows. A crude timer: Make a loop around the 'put' and do it 10,000 times and then divide the delta seconds by 10,000.
