Fuse is really really bad IMO for tweening when performance (like with your complex vector graphic) is a concern. I dropped it because it became unusable for me in high stress situations. My current tweener-of-the-month I like is TweenLite.
Also, Flash does have a hard time, tweening aside, when very very complex vector graphics are used. We designed a very complex photo-realistic assets representing the inside of an ATM machine, which took us several days to build, and had performance issues that were unrelated to any code (we tested it in fresh .flas with no code) - and these graphics were done with only Flash drawing tools. We used a ton of gradients to achieve photo-realistic rendering, but it came with a price. The main problem we had was sometimes the Flash player (8 at the time) would not load the graphic, sometimes it would - completely random. We finally got it working fine, but learned there are limits to what the browser/player/memory can render. Possible it was related to the video card too, to be fair. Anyway, something to keep in mind.
