YouΓÇÖll know that the more animation you have on the screen, the slower the computer can process the presentation. If you put too many moving dots on the screen at once, the animation gets clunky and everything slows down. You can correct this to a certain degree by using audio through the animation sequence and setting the audio properties to stream. So, as well as enhancing the user experience, any audio loop that you add will help to keep your animation up to speed for viewers with slower computers. Streaming keeps the animation in sync with the audio by skipping animation frames along the way. A few missed frames in an animation like the dots graph is no big deal.
Setting the sound to stream wonΓÇÖt correct everything. If there are just too many movie clips animating at once, instead of chugging along slowly, the stream setting will cause slower machines to skip over a lot of frames, and that looks even worse than being a little slow. Play around with the movieΓÇÖs fps setting as well. Speeding up the movie wonΓÇÖt help a slower machine, but if youΓÇÖre used to setting your fps at higher speeds (more than the default twelve fps), you might try lowering it if you play with the stream sync technique.
