I think Alex was humorously responding to fotis' joking in the previous post when he used the word "right". His point is that one should not expect two builds of the same code base to be identical

I'm quite puzzled of what you've said about right date and time, what do you mean by that? Is the right date and time affects the swf file size?

SWFs are zipped and there is some date/time bytes in the SWF that affect the compression table. No two builds are the same.

Hi, I am working on a project where the debug build is about 1MB. The problem is that from build to build i have seen the resulting swf changing sizes. The builds do not add or remove any code, its just minor changes ie myIntVar = 1 instead of 0. Last 5 builds: 1. 1086 KB 2. 1086 KB 3. 894 KB 4. 933 KB 5. 1087 KB I am not sure yet if this happens in the release build as well... Anybody seen that before? PS: Else i will keep rebuilding until i get the smaller possible size to publish... (just joking)
