I wouldn't necessarily say "inefficient", but there are far easier approaches. The typical load testing approach is to use a single client, and record that client's interaction with the server. Once that's done, the recording becomes the basis of a script that you'd run from within the load testing tool. I believe there's a load testing tool that supports AMF, but if you're not using AMF than you don't even have to worry about that - just use a standard load testing tool that can record all interaction between the client and the server.
