Hmm,
I did a bit of a test on this recently with a PHP based server just
to test read & write in Flash with a binary socket...
I have uploaded a zip containing 2 flash apps - reader & writer that
use 12 byte packets across a simple "echoing" socket server which writes
packets out to all of the clients except the sending one:

I think managed to get about 60packets/s out of it before it started
doubling up / dropping packets (this was on a local machine though).
One thing I have noticed with sockets though is that some servers
will spew a load of packets at once rather than one at a time - this is
one of the things I was trying to discover with my test and prove that
the error was on the server side :)
If you don't have the facilities to run command line PHP, you can
easily enough roll your own with examples on line.

I am curious if anyone knows how fast Flash can generally accept socket data
without dropping messages.
Thanks,
