Force, ITS FLASH.

And depending on how you make games in flash it can be laggy or not. Its really weird.

Same deal with applets/java and javascript, it can either be smooth or absolutely brutal for no real reason.

Oh there's a reason.
Usually its a garbage collector (such as with Java). The problem is you cannot explicitly call it because it will be envoked at some point in time (even after the execution).

But, with Javascript, do you mean in IE? if you do, that's because IE uses js1.1, which is total s**t.

Certain scripts run beautifully, it all depends on they're written.

In this case, I'm just guessing, but I think Flash has a Garbage Collector, or a memory manager of some sort. And they might of wrote a small script to keep a certain amount of memory open, who knows (besides the developers of course). [addsig]

Specifications, jeff?

I'm intrigued, I know my PC's are "bad", I was hoping there would be one worse...

566, geforce2

hey, at least it's not a geforce2mx

But seriously, how can I run Vice City, a fully 3D, super interactive game, and not some sidescrolling 2D nonsense? Flash is just plain bad if you ask me.
