It should be pointed out that the server is what you are most interested in for this case. I have had good experiences using XMLSocket and Flash in many situations. I have however seen many horrible server implementations that result in poor performance that have nothing to do with the Flash client...

We are using XMLSockets in one of the engagements that I am currently
working on. We are in development phase at the moment and are looking to use
sockets to be able to push real time status information to the client. The
goal is to support around 2000 simultaneous connections. While the app is
looking to be built in Flash for this version, Flex was fully capable in
handling this requirement. My thought would be if you abstract out your
service calls and have the application setup with a series of responder
methods (onResult) to the XMLSocket calls you can very easily have both
stateful and stateless communication with your server to optimize you middle
tier interaction.
You can email me off line if you like. Since we haven't deployed out to QA
yet I can't specifically talk to the issues you noted below. At least not
yet.

Subject: [flexcoders] Experiences with XMLSocket?
We are looking at using XMLSocket and a data push model to improve some
real-time aspects our application.
Has anyone had real experience using XMLSOcket with a large set of users? I
guess I'm looking for cases where it doesn't work (e.g., firewall issues) or
doesn't work well.
