The Question: Just how fast do advanced actions execute themselves? The Answer: At times, I’ve found myself pondering that same question. And to find the answer, I set out to test it in the real world. My process, and findings are below. First, I have no doubt that executing a single advanced action would happen too quickly to measure.
