AS3倒数计时器会随着时间的推移经历极端的帧速率损失

Question

I have a simple countdown timer written in AS3 that builds up CPU use and frame render time progressively over time to the point of frame rate dropping to 2-3 per second over the course of 10 minutes. The timeline has 1 frame and the stage has 4 tlf text areas with instance names HH MM SS and FF. The code updates these text areas each frame based upon a comparison with the current time and an "event time".
I've looked in scout and the offending activity is a "Handling event 'render'" which eats up 95% of the active time

Code shown below

import flash.events.Event;
stop();

// ***Customization Point*** Enter the event date as (Year, Month - 1, day, 24Hr Hours,     Minutes -1, Seconds - 1)
var End:Date = new Date(2013, 9, 15, 12, 0, 0);

var Now:Date;
var HH:Number;
var MM:Number;
var SS:Number;
var FF:Number;
stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, tick);

function tick(e:Event = null):void
{
Now = new Date();
HH = (End.day > Now.day) ? (End.hours - Now.hours + (24 * (End.day - Now.day))) : (End.hours - Now.hours);
MM = (End.minutes == 0)? 60 - Now.minutes : End.minutes - Now.minutes;
MM = (MM == 60)? 0 : MM;
HH = (MM < 0)? HH - 1 : HH - 1;
MM = (MM < 0)? -1 * MM : MM;

SS = (End.seconds == 0)? 60 - Now.seconds : End.seconds - Now.seconds;
SS = (SS == 60)? 0 : SS;
MM = (SS < 0)? MM - 1 : MM;
SS = (SS < 0)? -1 * SS : SS;

FF = 30 - Math.round(Now.milliseconds / 33.33);

F.text = (FF < 10) ? "0" + FF.toString() : FF.toString();
S.text = (SS < 10) ? "0" + SS.toString() : SS.toString();
M.text = (MM < 10) ? "0" + MM.toString() : MM.toString();
H.text = (HH < 10) ? "0" + HH.toString() : HH.toString();                                           
}

Answer 1

You are adding one enter frame listener per FRAME, these build up and cause lags. Make it so that the listener is added once (use flag for this).

var flag:Boolean; // default is false, but we don't want a value assigned HERE
if (!flag) {
    flag=true;
    stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, tick);
}

Update: Maybe declaring a variable resets its value, so you can try this instead:

if (!this["flag"]) {
    this["flag"]=true;
    stage.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, tick);
}

The change eliminates the local var, and now saves the state on the MovieClip instance, so it persists.

If this won't fix the issue either, try static var flag:Boolean with the first example. (Personally I don't like timeline code, with it you are not in full control of code and data flow, so it can throw up for various Flash engine issues. Also I don't have tools to reproduce this issue, my Flash CS4 trial is long over.)

Answer 2

TLF TextFields are extremely expensive and have significant overhead over regular TextFields.

As a result where possible you should always use regular dynamic TextFields.
