[ferret_users] Fwd: ferret vs pyferret performance time....

[Sudheer Joseph <sjo.india@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear developers/Users,

Between version 6.67 and 6.84 versions of ferret I get considerable delay when using t=@ngd] is this already noticed by some one or are there any solutions, If I use 6.67 I get the result in much less time compared to 6.84

Similarly 

                       I get a poor performance with pyferret when compared with normal ferret for the same set of operations. for the below script normal ferret takes 25 seconds where as pyferret takes 5 minutes. Why is this difference is this due to configuration issue ? are there anything in pyferret to set for making it faster?  I do not get any message or error while starting pyferret as I have cdtime there with my python.

Please share your experience if any one has faced same and also if there a solution?
