hello, in case you'd like to troubleshoot this performance issue, it would be best to contact adobe's support & file a bug report at bugbase.adobe.com, since they will have a better understanding of the internals of flash & therefore may know what might be at the root of the problem you were seeing and they are the only party who can fix it.
