Flash 7 beta: Early findings

Good news is that performance has been improved, not as dramatically as it was previously announced, but enough to be significant. Then again, I been testing the new Flash player almost exclusively against sites with medium complexity levels, meaning that performance improvements could be more notorious with more complex applications. What I already reported though, is some problems with FlashCom applications…

I was trying the FCS chat room over at Flashtrix, and what was happening is that I couldn’t disconnect from the server. Every time I go back, another instance of ‘me’ appears. Furthermore, even if I closed the chat room, I still could hear all the audio streaming! odd…

If you have anything to report, you can go here. Be sure to try every little thing in the applications you already have running.
