Via Python REST API SDK jobs.create(search) search starts and runs, but takes like 20 minutes compared to search app on the search head, it takes like 26 seconds to run the same search.

i'm basically using the To create a normal search, poll for completion, and display results from http://dev.splunk.com/view/python-sdk/SP-CAAAEE5
