However I'd like to be able to detect if I'm taking too long per block and running into the next frame. Also, I'd like to do more per cycle if my app finds itself running on a ninja machine :) Anyone have any tips for this sort of thing? Should I just be using the timer and striving for 1/4 of a frame measured in ms? What framerate are Flex SWFs set to run at normally?
