I did post a comment here:

Asking what was going on, but the comments are pre-approved and looking at it, mine wasn't.

same with me, posted there, too.
I think everyone who is annoyed about the issue should write a bug report here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/...?name=wishform
stating that the beta player achieved way better performance than the release player and ask what is up there.
If you have a blog a blog post there might help, too.

Perhaps if more people ask there we may get an answer.

Hope the same.

As adobe's customers we don't have a god given right to anything, but I think we're entitled to have an explanation somewhere about the difference in performance.
We've been encouraged to join in the beta programme. Part of the beta2 changes was a huge performance increase ( Which it was ). Why release ( well two ) a beta with what turned out to be an artificial performance increase ?

Squize.

yeah, totally agree on all. Of course we have no assured right to expect that a beta or final release of this or that of their apps/technologies has this or that functionality. On the other side hyping the performance of the beta player, getting it hyped for free by all early adopter longtime flash platform developers in beta phase and then releasing something which is massively worse in performance is borderline to fraud in my eyes if it was intentionally done.
If it wasn´t done intentionally done but as result of some technical last minute issue i hope they react on it (fix it) when realizing lots of people see such performance differences and it is an issue.

It seems the audio trick to create sounds from a ByteArray is not working anymore. Can somebody confirm ?

Andre Michelle posted the first comment in the post on http://www.kaourantin.net/ about the new player stating there that his audio hack doesn´t work with the release player and is very glitchy with it.
