Taking advantage of CC 2015+ Asynchronous Render in a Script

can done?

i have script duplicates , moves around bunch of layers , runs twice slow on cc 2015+ on cc 2014.  think has fact while script running in cc 2015+ viewer refreshes , shows script's progress. in cc 2014 software hangs until script done.

i tried implementing method disabling viewer's refresh:

re: refresh disabled

but didn't affect script's run time @ all.

so guess there's advantage new asynchronous render method... can exploited scripting?

for example, instead of looping linearly through selected layers , running code, can run script section on each selected layer simultaneously?

i thought of running external jsx file using .execute(); method doesn't run script in ae... , not sure if , how can pass variables it.

probably long shot thought of asking anyway... after all, there has benefit change in render thing.

or hurt scripting , should used it?

 

thanks
