Wow. I know Flash 9 was faster than 8, but I didn't realize it was that big a difference.
Anyone know what the difference is in image processing speed? I've been looking at porting an application we have to Flash that does a bunch of image processing (needs to be able to download raw image data at runtime, decompress it and then render it) but from what I heard from other Flash users Flash 7/8 isn't fast enough to handle that. -Andy On 7/27/07, greg h <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi moveup, > > Here is pretty much a repeat on my response when you asked this same > question back on 12/22/06 here on this list ;-) > > Loops and then some ... > > Props to Mike Lyda for running the following tests over time (and to JD for > originally bringing it to my attention.) > > Mike Lyda runs performance tests across various > engines<http://oddhammer.com/actionscriptperformance/>(JavaScript vs. > ActionScript vs Java) > November 24, 2006 > Flash ActionScript performance vs JavaScript (includes Flash Player 9) > http://oddhammer.com/actionscriptperformance/set4/ > > JD on EP > May 22, 2006 > AS3 performance tests > http://weblogs.macromedia.com/jd/archives/2006/05/as3_performance.cfm > (Note: Mike subsequently updated the tests with the GA version of Flash > Player 9 on November 24, 2006) > > Beyond, raw comparisons, last month Adobe Flex PM Matt Chotin presented on > ActionScript 3 Performance tips.
