Hi,

I'm using Flash 8, using XML.Load to get some data from another site and
returning it to the browser world thru a callback using ExternalInterface.call.
But when the XML string becomes rather large (30 to 100k), that call starts
taking a long time, between 20 to 100 seconds, depending on the string and the
browser (it appears faster in IE).
During that time, the browser is frozen.

Is this a known limitation? Is there better ways of transfering data from
Flash into the HTML world?

Note: I have verified that the callback code itself (on the javascript side)
is not responsible for this bottleneck.

Thanks,
Julien
