Has anyone seen any comparisons with the Shockwave player?

I'd love to know if AS3 can out-perform Lingo.

Thanks,

Andreas, you got any links to your benchmarking?  Id be interested to see
them (Im not planning on migrating to AS3 just yet).

I did an l-system implementation in AS2 recently. In FP8 i could only do
simple systems with a couple of recursions before the player choked, and
playback was slow as well (i animated the growth with perlin noise for a
wind effect). Porting to AS3 let me quadruple the l-system complexity, still
get instantaneous results and far, far better playback speed.

Not hard numbers, i know, but pretty mindblowing for me to watch as a
developer.

AS3 doesn't wrap AS2, this is important to remember. AS2 was pretty much
AS1 with knobs on, AS3 is a new language to learn (albeit not a tough one to
learn if you're used to AS2).

Of course it will be faster only if you port the code over to AS3 (otherwise it will still use the old AS2/1 VM1).

I posted about the 3D engine I wrote and the speed increase I got when I converted it to AS3 a few days ago so you can check that out as an example of just how much faster it is ;p

Hi people, they say that AS3 is 10 times faster than AS2 but what does that really means ? Does that mean that my movies will play faster even if I have a few dozens movieclips with graphics flying all over the screen? Or does it just mean that my .swf will be compiling 10 times
faster?
