Reducing Flex Application Size Drastically


Most of us while working on Flex applications get into a big problem of downloading time , as the application size increases it takes more time to get downloaded on the client machine, here are few things which i found to reduce the size of the application which makes the download time to get reduced drastically

The following three methods acn reduce the swf size by 70%

1. go to project properties->flex build path->library path -> framework linkage->select RSL from drop down press ok
2. go to project properties->flex complier->additional complier arguments
add "-debug=false" in the end -> press apply and ok.

3. Using a modular approach for application building, this can further reduce the application size.
