Differences between Flash Turbo and Squeak Turbo

So, I'm making a (rather) secret project.  In Scratch's turbo mode, it goes about ten times as fast as in the new Flash player.  What?

I guess you use some operations that flash doesn't perform quite well. If you use a lot of color sensing or something, this could be it.

A few cases show that math tends to slow down the new Flash player. Are you using many of the operator blocks?

None, I believe.

Actually, math is a lot faster in flash than in squeak. Example:
2000! with squeak: ~30 minutes at school.
2000! with flash: ~1 minute.

Look at my project.
