Hi Carl, I understand the problem. Can be a real pain in the *ss to figure it out. Especially because so many things can cause the problem.
You should double check you actually do clear your intervals + enterframes, but in my experience, the thing that kills the cpu the most is the effort flash has to put in redrawing your screen. So double (triple) check you are actually removing all non-visible elemelents. If e.g. you keep attaching/creating a couple of animating clips with some content and forget to remove them, it will definitely kill the cpu sooner or later. (especialy images which are almost always dynamically created/loaded seem to be a good place to look in general). Good luck, Ben Smeets -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carl Welch Sent: donderdag 22 maart 2007 5:51 To: Flashcoders mailing list Subject: [Flashcoders] High CPU usage problems Hi Coders, I've been having problem with some the apps I've been building. The CPU gets really bogged down like with usage often at 100%.I tend to use alot of tween classes, load external images and XML. I've never really had a good grasp of what to do with things regarding memory usage(programatically). I like to keep all my scripting on one frame and have function do what I need do. Currently, I am having the problem with this project: http://www.artandsignfx.com/temp.html I programmed the "Portfolio Section". Bring up the task manager and watch the performance graph. You can watch it start to bogg down after a while of clicking around the portfolio section. Its loading xmls (one for the Side Menu) and the other for the thumbnails and theire respective data. There are quite a few createMovieClips and AttachMovieClips and some setIntervals - which I do clear when I'm done. When I create a tween object I try to kill it when I'm done using it with "delete myObject;" - not sure if that even works. Can anyone offer any advice or point me in the direction of a really good article regarding this subject?. -- Carl Welch http://www.carlwelch.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] 805.403.4819 _______________________________________________ [email protected] To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
