Flash CS4 for Mac is slow as fudge?

Ghalgaryth, what's your setup?

It's frustrating, because there's not much of an alternative for us other than stick with CS3/Flash8. Maybe in a few years after we upgrade our computers they'll be fast enough. lol.

Please Adobe, keep Flash as a platform useful for more than just RIA.

I am running Production Premium on a PC with win XP.
Dual core 2.8ghz, 2.8ghz
3 GB of RAM
Radeon x1600 512MB video card

I am leaning towards returning the whole creative suite now. I am way over the system requirements so I feel like a system upgrade would be a waste of money...it might still be slow. Although....dare I say it....maybe Vista might be the answer.

Everyone with the problems has a good enough computer man it's the software that’s bad, I tried it on my vista computer and it still lags like a snail in a horse race.
Adobe has not acknowledged that there is anything wrong with the release and when you call support they are on the phone with you trouble shooting and bull****ing you half to death with no noticeable results. Flash CS4 is nothing but an incomplete beta version of what would have been a great program
and should have never been released as it is today.
Adobe owes the Flash user community a BIG PUBLIC APOLOGY for letting the clowns at the flash labs do this.
