Hans Vandevelde (aka: Mr Kenanzo/Novio/Hans Védévé) just saved my day. I read a post on his blog about a tool that enables deletion of those, sometimes irritating, hidden .svn folders when you have checked out a project from a subversion repository. It’s a useful tool when you have svn troubles while: migrating projects, solving svn incompatibilities, … .

The last few months I have been busy integrating Flash swf files into bigger (mostly Flex) projects. Because Flex websites might hog the memory due to large amounts of graphical elements and sometimes enormous huge amount of dynamic content, I had to keep an eye out for performance drops.
There have been a lot of optimization tricks for ActionScript 3, mine listed here will probably already be somewhere on one or another guru’s blog. But I’d like to list them again because I think there is a need to educate beginning (and sometimes advanced) ActionScript developers about the different performance capabilities. Please mind that this is NOT a complete list in any way. These optimizations are the ones I had to use the most lately.
