      I think this is going to depend on the size of your 250 files.  When TestComplete runs a test, it processes all the script files.  I can imagine that if you have lots of very large script files, it will take a while to process.  How large are your files?  Can you provide a sample?

       

      Try sprinkling some Log.Message() calls at the top level in your script files just to see how long it takes to process the files.

        joseph_michaud  That's what I was trying to get at with removing the USEUNIT.  If the empty function runs really fast then, we know the 250 is the culprit.
