i have a fla file which is hardly 1 mb.
why the heck is it taking so long to publish?..it is taking around 15-20 mins.
it has 5-6 scenes but before i had done same thing with fla file size around 2 mb but it did not take so long.
any idea why is it happening?

Do you have large bitmaps or MCs with alpha values other than 100? (ie. semi-transparent / fully transparent)
