<br>That did it, thank you. My ignorance at the .NET framework shows itself. with the test app it now executes at around 0.88 seconds vs the 1.6 for the script version. And I feel silly for spending some time adding a splash screen to the app as it just disappears in under a second.<br>

<div>What if you NGEN the executable produced by pyc?</div>

<div>JIT can make startup expensive, and you're probably getting the adaptive interpreter when running against ipy.exe.<br></div><div><div></div><div class="h5">
