Just a thought - try moving the variable declarations out of the loops: http://www.rozengain.com/blog/2007/05/01/some-actionscript-30-optimizations/ http://osflash.org/as3_speed_optimizations

Re: [Flashcoders] A fast FFT in Flash?

Hi, You should maybe look using twiddle factors and creating these in the init too - so you are not doing cosine / sin math in the butterfly loops? There are some FFT algorithm optimisations about which init these and just do multiplication / addition in the main loop - you might

[Flashcoders] Semi-OT: Alchemy

2010-08-03 Thread Merrill, Jason
With Gerry's post last night on his Fast Fourier Transforms question and that Alchemy won't cut it, it makes me curious why Alchemy is still in Adobe Labs. I saw the first preview back at Max 2007 and it's still in beta three years later... wonder if it's some technical hurdles they haven't been

[Flashcoders] Using Flash Clients for capacity testing

2010-08-03 Thread Tom Gooding
Hi, Does anyone have any experience of using AS3 apps (be it standalone swfs / AIR apps, or even via browser plugin) to generate load for distributed capacity tests? The advantage of this would is the option to exercise production client code in load-testing / dimensioning. My suspicion is

Re: [Flashcoders] Using Flash Clients for capacity testing

2010-08-03 Thread Dave Watts
My suspicion is that the flash runtime and network stack is too inefficient to really utilise available hardware compared to a lower level language or framework.. I wouldn't necessarily say inefficient, but there are far easier approaches. The typical load testing approach is to use a single

Hello there, I must say that I was curious too so last week I tried it and I'm really pleased by the results. I have managed to compile Doom in Flash by following the tutorial by Bruce Jawn: http://bruce-lab.blogspot.com/2009/09/build-your-doom-in-flash-step-by-step.html The tutorial is based

I really wish I could provide a link for this info but... I remember it being said that no further Alchemy development would happen. In other words, it is a dead project. If I can remember where I got the info I will pass it on. On Tue, Aug 3, 2010 at 7:41 AM, Merrill, Jason
