I dunno if this holds true with you guys but I noticed having a lot of application mxml in the same project folder burdens flex a lot. So im guessing when flex is 'building workspace' - one of the memory intensive task it does is checking each application in your project directory and looking for dependencies (broken ones, updated ones, erroneous ones etc). Correct me if im wrong - moreover i think it updates the project property file associated with the current project. I have also tried moving to a new workspace for every big project i have to do - probably it's overkill -- or even unrelated.. but i have to convince myself im doing something to make it compile faster :D (im running it on 1.5 GB mem with 3GHz processor at 800mhz FSB.. it's not top of the line but i had not expected it to choke on a Flex compile. Apparently i was wrong. So on top of run-time advantages, having the mx module component in the next flex release will allow us to create separate application and project filers for the parts/modules we need.)
