[Flashcoders] stop() an empty movieclip still relevant for FP8?

2006-03-09 Thread Peter O'Brien
Looking at converting someone elses AS1 code to AS2, and there's a practise
of:

createEmptyMovieClip('ex',1);
ex.stop();

which is noted to save cpu usage.  Is this a relevant optimisation for FP8?

That doesn't do anything.  If a movieclip is empty, there is nothing to 
play.
