Two scenarios:

scenario one:
There are 30 movieClips on stage acting out some time-based scripted 3d.


scenario two:

There's one movieClip on stage, and every frame, a for..loop applies a matrix to it 30 times, and a BitmapData draws() the result....

Which scenario is recommended/more efficient?

We had a similar discussion lately..

I would highly guess the matrix Transform on the BitmapData will be much faster.

pre drawn frames will always be faster than frames generated on the fly.. until AS3, still i don't know about the improvements in the drawing abilities.
