The human eye is not capable of seeing the difference in such high frame rates anyway. Anything above about 30 fps is just a waste
of CPU power and will drag down the performance of your program. When you set FPS you are not setting the speed anyway, you are
setting a speed limit. Actual speed is dependant on the power of the viewer's computer to perform the screen updates. You will
have much smoother performance if you don't use a high frame rate because the CPU will attempt to run it that fast and will jump and
stutter trying to do it.

I've created an all flash site here

www.madisonlawgroup.com

All movies published for this site are in 60 frames per second. When I test
run the whole thing it runs fine, but when I upload the files to my server, the
animation is real jerky/slow.

What I have created is a holder that sits in the middle of the main .swf. the
holder loads the first movie and when that one finishes it loads the second and
loads 3 more movies for a total of 5, then it repeats. Within this holder i
have 5 additional holders that load all the movies so the frame length of the
holder runs the entire span of all five movies. So the total frames that this
holder has is 2762 frames.

My question is, what should I do diffrent to get the animations flowing
smoothly without lags/delays?

Good point tralfaz, if 25 fps is good enough for film it should be smooth
enough for web (you'd think).
