Wow. I know Flash 9 was faster than 8, but I didn't realize it was that big a difference. Anyone know what the difference is in image processing speed? I've been looking at porting an application we have to Flash that does a bunch of image processing (needs to be able to download raw image data

[Flashcoders] Q: loop speed AS2 and AS3

2007-07-27 Thread moveup
This has been covered ad nauseum for AS1, but, has anyone done loop speed comparisons for AS2 and AS3? Primarily as I have code that relies HEAVILY of for loops, I want to find out what speed advantages if any can be had by switching to while or do while loops in AS2. Thanks! [e] jbach at

FLASM: http://flasm.sourceforge.net/#optimization When it comes to optimizing, there are a few key things to remember: 1) Subtraction is faster than addition 2) Decrementation is faster than incremenations 3) Pre-decrementation is faster than post-decrementation By faster, it means there is

is only noticeable when you're doing 50,000+ loops of non-trivial code. When you're doing 50,000+ loops of non-trivial code, I don't think it's performance of the loop you have to worry about. :) Here's something about performance:
