You could take a look at weborb and use typed objects with remoting. This uses AMF which would be fast, but depends on the size of each of your objects still, eh? What are you doing with this data? Simple display in a datagrid or the like? Or are you anticipating user interaction with this data, mutable objects and the like? If the former, I'd say XML sent from your server using REST and e4x use in Flex would be fast. Use gZip on your server to speed it up more so. There are many facotrs in this mix that could slow things down too, just like any web page.
Just for a point of info, I'm currently using weborb to dump large AMF sets in 50k size range. Takes like 4-5 seconds, but the Flex client chokes for a few seconds deserializing it.
