interesting - I never managed to get below the millisecond border. Even comparing a 3x3 pixel probe with the 3x3 pixel shot costs some milliseconds.
So you might try waitScanRate(100000) ;-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Sikuli Drivers, which is subscribed to Sikuli. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162649 Title: X-1.0rc3: Region.exists(img, 0) waits minimum time given by WaitScanRate even when search time is shorter Status in Sikuli: Fix Committed Bug description: The Region.exists() function has an unnecessary sleep in it, even when the wait time is set to 0 (eg. Region.exists("myimage.png", 0). The shortest possible sleep time is 1/Settings.WaitScanRate, with WaitScanRate set to 1000. Values for WaitScanRate > 1000 are ignored, and less than 1000 result in a longer wait time. I believe that when exists() is called with a 0 wait time, then after doing the find it should immediately return the result without sleeping for 1/Settings.WaitScanRate seconds first. All that said, as a workaround, the findNow() function can be used for an immediate find instead, as it does not have the extra delay (and is in fact unaffected by the WaitScanRate setting). So, in code, rather than using: Region.exists("image.png", 0) instead use: (findNow("image.png") != None) This was observed in Sikuli X 1.0-rc3 (r905), on a Windows 7 64-bit OS. Side note: one might reasonably assume that an extra delay of 1/1000 of a second might be considered negligible / inconsequential, but I am using Sikuli in an application which is being tightly performance tuned, and the time to determine whether an image exists in a region only takes about 0.2 milliseconds, so the extra 1 millisecond added on top really slows things down :-).
