Hi, This is a single thread problem. The problem is you are parsing data that is taking that single thread the Flash Player uses to do all of it's work.
The solution is to batch your xml parsing into a timer queue of sorts, dispatch an event to the progress bar updating the batch total to completed. Then your screen will not lock up either. I have done this with quite a bit of things, batching definitely works. You as the developer need to figure out how to abstract the parsing into chunks.
