Re: FLASH: Speed / benchmark issues.

[Russell E. Unger]

All of those things, actually.


The key:  Do as few of those types of things at the same time as possible.


There are tricks--do an alpha fade quickly, THEN move your piece versus move and

alpha fade at the same time--if you can master this, you can trick the human eye

into a lot of things.


There are other tips, but as Kevin Jackson would say--"I see the patented Russ

Unger alpha fades in there..." and that's where I started learning the tricks to

optimizing.
