Hey! This sounds a lot like what I was just doing ...

I don't know if it's all the index checking that's slowing you down, but you can do it all based on paragraphs:



set properties of text from character 1 to (character 1 whose contents = "	") of paragraph i to {applied font:"Times", font style:"Bold"} 




On my machine (Mac G4 400 mhz) it did 83 changes in 7 seconds.
