I've written and regularly use several scripts that rearrange apps/windows on the desktop, and the actual rearranging work is done by a handler that uses the System Events' position and bounds properties. The scripts work as I want but tend to be a bit slow.

I ran some timing tests with four open apps, and one script takes about 330 milliseconds. However, with the System Events handler disabled, the timing result is about 8 milliseconds. So, to make the script faster, I have to find an alternative to System Events. Is there some ASObjC method that will do this? Thanks.
