and smooth.

My intention is to reveal some of the building's detail before redirecting the user to the main site.  Real-time zooming/scaling is not an option, due to the large number of lines on the stage, so I'm trying a progressive fade-in/fade-out instead; each "zoom" is a 5-frame alpha fade, and it seems like Flash is heaving out each frame (instead of dropping frames to keep up with the frame rate).
