I'd suggest using a longer running application for sending traps.  I
would bet if you implemented a program that just sent traps and stayed
running that it would be faster.  I'm betting that the startup time of
snmptrap is what is killing you here.  Maybe because you're using
SNMPv3 users?  If so, changing from passwords on the command line
prompt to localized keys would greatly speed things up.
