flash actionscript: I get the following message when testing a movie:

The script in this movie is causing flash player to run slowly. If it
continues to run, your computer may be unresponsive. Do you want to abort the
script?

What the heck does this mean? I checked all my script and can't find a darn
thing!

That is most likely because of a loop somewhere. Ideally each frame's code
should finnish within the amount of time determined by the framerate. If there
is a loop which takes alot of time, or perhaps doesn't even finnish, the you
get that error message.

The "may be unresponsive" message usually means the
movie has gotten stuck on one frame. The commonest
reason for this is a frame script with a non-exiting loop )
as Eric said).

You can find it by turning on the Bandwidth Profiler in
the Flash development environment, and using the
debugging tools.

What if you have some compute intensive function that will take a couple of
seconds, but you don't want this message popping up all the time? Is there
some Flash Player setting that increases allowed time slot?

Thanks
