The type of behaviour reminds me of when you load images and create
multiple (10+) movieclips on top of eachother, the player gets stuck.

In case you get any use out of it,

Subject: [Flashcoders] Image Loading causes Flash slowness and high
cpuutilization

We have a Flex application which loads many copies of an image on the
fly. In some situations the image loading seems to cause Flash to slow
down (and use more CPU).

The slowdown stays with Flash beyond the loading of the image. We can
wait a hour and the load is still high. And each time this happens the
player gets a little bit slower and never improves until the browser is
restarted. This does not appear to be a memory utilization issue.

One hypothesis is that there is some type of background element (a layer
on the timeline) which is responsible for loading the image, and somehow
this gets hung up and doesn't get cleaned up. Get enough of these and
the load goes up.

Does this ring a bell with anyone. Is this a known problem?

It may be related to other events happening at the same time (e.g.,
moving the image before it is loaded, or loading a new image before the
old one is loaded). The longer it takes to load the image (e.g., local
web server versus remote), the more likely the problem.

This is with Flex 1.5. This affects all versions of flash on all
platforms we have tested.
