They are loaded in the moment that you use the symbols.  So for example
if you use a symbol in frame 5 it gets loaded in that frame.

When you say 'use a symbol' are you referring to when the content of a frame is played versus the frame being loaded? I can see the case where the content of the first frame is played continously without ever having played any of the other frames. So basically, if a symbol is only ever referred to in a single frame and that frame is never played, then that symbol is never loaded. If that's the case, then, from the users perspective, the swf file loads and plays practically instantaneously. Do you agree?

I think that only the parts you are using get loaded, but I'm not
completely sure about this

It's important to understand this point because if the whole shared library is loaded on first use, then putting each symbol is it's own shared library will reduce the load time.
