Hi Alex, Thanks for the reply.
I am just a little concerned, since the SWF will be loaded when the application is started, wouldn't having a big swf file do a big hit already on the network resources? So is it fair to say, that since the RSL linkage would be a one time hit, then the succeeding load of the SWF application will be smaller? Or will it still be the same size as it is compiled? Appreciate the insights on this. Thanks.
