Some rants about Flash player performance in browser and frame limiting in general

I have hard time getting my Flash files run on FPS I want. I don’t mind spending hours and  hours on optimization, and constant quest with only one cause – getting the most out of every line of actionscript code. I don’t mind IDE or standalone performance aether. What I do mind is frame rate limiting in browsers. Ok, what’s the deal with that? I know that there are guys with malicious ideas, and that browser makers have to protect their users, but what about all those good guys – developers? :)
