The speed of 6.1.3 vs 7, 8 or 9
Posted: Wed Nov 23, 2016 5:49 am
I have developed an app that relies on running 3 animations by showing a stack of cards (107 cards 550 X 400) with a single png image on the card. When I run the app on my 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5 iMac the 6.1.3 version runs pretty fast and on my 2.7 GHz intel MacBook it is fine. If it runs too fast I can easily script it to slow down. When I deploy the 7, 8 or 9 versions of the App to the iMac it is adequate,however, when viewed on my 2.7 GHz intel (early 2015) the 7,8 or 9 versions are PAINFULLY slow. 
Interestingly, when played in boot camp on a 2008 2.4 GHz MacBook all versions are blindingly fast. What is issue with the
Mac OS?
Is there anything I can do to speed up 7,8 or 9 on the 2.7 GHz intel MacBook Pro?
Thanks for any assistance

local tstack
local tcds
local tspeed
local tnum
local tnew
set the lockmessages to true
put fld "stackname" into tstack
put the number of cards of stack tstack into tcds
put fld "speed" into tspeed
put fld "tymes" into tnum
open stack tstack
go to card 1
put tcds -1 into tnew
lock messages
repeat tnum times
repeat tnew times
wait tspeed milliseconds
go next
end repeat
wait 1 sec
go to card 1
wait 1 sec
end repeat
end mouseUp
