Hi, Here some benchs I've made during the Beta 2, comparison between AS2's and AS3's basics operations. All have been mades on 100000 iterations. ____________________________________________________________ AS2: addition (5+12) : 370 ms subtract (5-12) : 365 ms multiply (5x12) : 351 ms divide (5/12) : 375 ms concat : 471 ms round (16.87956) : 346 ms square (2) : 395 ms creating objects with {x:50,y:100} : 1560 ms creating objects with new : 1734 ms creating arrays with [50,60,70] : 1834 ms creating arrays with new : 2127 ms ____________________________________________________________ AS3 : addition (5+12) : 4 ms subtract (5-12) : 6 ms multiply (5x12) : 6 ms divide (5/12) : 7 ms concat : 63 ms concat with StringBuilder : 12 ms round (16.87956) : 25 ms square (2) : 24 ms creating objects with {x:50,y:100} : 89 ms creating objects with new : 70 ms creating arrays with [50,60,70] : 90 ms creating arrays with new : 300 ms Something cool is that the new keyword is much faster on AS3 when creating objects, whereas it's the inverse in AS3.
