Ryan, do you compile a lot of resources into the SWF file? I've been working on Flex projects where we had a lot of resources compiled into the app, and the compilation could take up to 3-4 minutes. Generally the Flex compiler is much slower than the OpenLaszlo compiler for the SWF8 runtime. I've heard of Flex projects with compile times going to up 8 minutes.
