I've run a previous game of shadowrun and am currently running one but does anyone else find the combat incredibly slow and clunky? That so much can happen in 3 seconds (1 combat turn) is fair enough but the amount of real time it takes is ridiculous. Perhaps it's merely because the players are unfamiliar with the system (and I am not exactly perfect with my memory of the rules) but with the concept of initiative passes it means that the idea of compound encounters can be incredibly difficult because if for instance people are alerted to gunfire and quickly zip over there to help out but it'll take them 10 or so seconds to do that combat's usually already over. Does anyone have any advice for making the combat flow better?

Then Mitch remembers he's about to go and chooses an action real quick
