Just to clarify a few more details... The delay experienced is in the initialization of the map component, not in the launching of the AIR application itself - which loads in a couple of seconds. When I switch to the view state containing the map, the map component is initialized and there is a delay of approx. 30 seconds on my G4 Mac (home) and around 10 seconds on my Intel Mac (work) before the map component even begins to load map tiles - the AIR app is completely unresponsive during map initialization.
Using tcpdump I can see that the Maps API doesn't begin loading external resources such as /mapfiles/lib/map_1_8a.swf and the map tiles until after this initialization is complete. When running the app as an installed AIR application map initialization is approx. 2 seconds. Both machines are running FlexBuilder 3.0.2 and Air 1.5 if that makes any difference.
