Multiple scenes makes flash movie slow

Hello Everyone! i have just joined the forum today and was hoping if i can get some help with my flash problem …my flash movie becomes slower everytime i add a scene with some basic scripts like gotoAndPlay ie when i hit ctrl enter it takes a very long time to export file…

Here is my problem :-

i am trying to make a website in flash so i have a few scenes like company, occasion, contact us, home etc…on the buttons i want to play a mc which plays on roll over and roll out…till here its all fine…

the problem occurs when i duplicate the scence and call it for eg company and ask the button to gotoAndPlay scene :- company Frame 1 or CompanyStart (frame label)

even with one additional scene the export movie (ctrl+enter) becomes extremely slow…can someone please help me solve this or has anyone had a problem like this before?

p.s this only happens in flash 8, i have done the same thing in an earlier version and all used to work fine…
Thanks
