It used to be bad but as of Flash MX 2004, it was improved a bit. Most of the Array methods are slow, though, when compared to other languages. For instance, it's faster to use myArray[x] = val than myArray.push(val). Shift and Unshift are extremely slow.
If you need speed for an array that you're going to be iterating over or shuffling items around a lot in, you should consider using a doubly-linked array. Check Google for more information. -Steven _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
