I created some javascript which worked perfectly on previous versions of PS from 2018 to 2020. After update on version 2021 or 2022 my script suddenly slow down. For example before update when i run this code i just see final result but after update i wait for every step of this script. Is it possible to accelerate this script?

Most likely you have to change Playback Options of Actions contextual dropdown menu to Accelerated.

Without checking any options it took 3 seconds on slow computer with 22.3.2.

Is it too long? How much for you in both versions? Did you reset Preferences?

I tried solution with restarting preferences but still the same... This code is a part of original code, which lasts a few seconds longer, but the problem is not time as much as the fact that it is not aesthetically good. In previous versions of PS users run this script and they get final result in the moment, but now when they run it look very slow when they foolow every step of script. Script is very simple, i just need to create some text layers with some speific informations related to psd. Do you think that problem may be that the code is written using ScriptListener, is it possible to simplify code?

I tested many times on very fast computer. For 22.5.7 it took 0.75 sec., in 23.3.2 it took 0.7 sec.

 

It's faster in current release so better compare results trying the code on some other machine.
