>From my experience, Flash has had issues composing many Bitmaps when they're overlapping each other. It'd just start hiding some of the images, roughly after 20 of them were present. Are your images overlapping?
If that's what's going on, you may be able to solve it by 'grouping' the MCs in parent MCs in groups of 10 or so. Then set those parent MCs to precompose (BlendMode.LAYER, or adding an empty blur filter to force it), thus avoiding a direct composition of more than 20 layers at a time.
