Source Code for puts(..)

[Derril Lucci]

Dear all,
I am writing a program that for some reason one of the options takes
20 seconds to run while the other two combined take 12 seconds. I have
the problem narrowed down to one line of code that is always run. This
line executes a shell command via puts(`...`). So, I am convinced the
reason the program takes so long lies in the puts source. If anyone can
direct to that, I would be most grateful.

TL;DR: My code is running slowly and I think puts(..) is the reason
why. Anyone have the source for it?

Cheers,
dlucci

I am convinced that the reason lies in the shell command.
If you are not, try this
p "starting"
x =3D `...`
p "end"
puts x
