loading swf (online) ???

[gege]

whan loading swf file (online) what is happening ?
1- loading time depends on file size,or size of library mc's,or files of mc's on stage.
2- loading file frame by frame or all file at once.
I need to understand this deeply because I have a lot of problem with loading large size files.
Can any one explain this for me?

the loading time depends on the file size of the swf

frames get loaded 1 by one

if you have any clips in your library set to "export for actionscript", these will generally be loaded in the first frame
