    draw() vs. clips on Stage

    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.
    Nothing to see here, move along.
