I wrote a script to rip text off a *locally* stored internal website, and, I know this sounds picky, but it takes FIVE seconds to parse a fully loaded page? The CPU doesn't seem to max out, what's the deal?
It's only a couple extracts... I assign them to variables and post them in a form concatenated... nothing fancy.
It sounds insignificant, but it's 5 seconds times something I have to do around 400 times a day. That's half an hour a day!
Unecessarily slow scripts??

Hi,
Thanks for the feedback. We are constantly looking to improve the iMacros product, so understanding how people are using it and what limitations they are encountering helps a lot.
One feature we have added to improve the macro execution time is the introduction of the filter command. http://wiki.imacros.net/FILTER Currently this only works with images, but it improves page loading times and reduces the page content.
