Color effect slows down game online

The color effect slows down the projects online, even when everything holds still. Can someone tell me why this is happening? I have Windows XP. It might just be online lag, but I'm not so sure. I had the script like this:

<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<change[ color ]effect by(5
<end>

Can someone tell me the problem without going too in depth on it?

I think it must just be the online lag... have you tried downloading?

Re: Color effect slows down game online

That's odd... yesterday I played a game involving continuous color effect, which worked far faster online than when downloaded.  hmm

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Yeah, I tried downloading. It was just a bit faster, but still a little laggy.

Hmm....
Possible reasons:

Java Lag
Online Lag
Browser lag
OS Lag
Scratch Lag

it's probably one of them  hmm

Main point: LAG!

Yes, the effect block is laggy.
