[X-SW] Flash compiling takes forever...

[John Pariseau]

I'm using Flash 8, OS X 10.4.3. At some point my .fla file started  
taking f o r e v e r to compile. I changed nothing, added nothing  
big. The only thing I did was add radiobutton components. I removed  
them. I also went throughout the document and removed all the  
actionscript. Nothing. I don't remember if the long compile time  
happened after or before the components.

The document is all vector, one font embedded throughout (Futura).  
The only effect is a drop shadow below a button using stepped vector  
objects - I could try removing this object. I'm not using an "effect"  
because I am targeting Flash 6.

Images are loaded via xml - not embedded.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
