One trick I've used to avoid the loading delay is to always keep the 3d member in the frame. I just resize it to 1x1 pixel and stick it in a corner, but you could probably also stick it off stage. That way you only get the loading delay at the start of the program, where it is less noticeable.

Chris/Kevan, thanks for the replies. The check/load test is something I use all the time with video or other large bits of media. But that ain't the prob: There seems to be a delay with not only putting the 3d member on the stage but switching antialiasing on/off produces the same delay.
