I knew for a long time now that flash had undocumented features, little part of flash that could help speed up process (like the memory opcodes) or make interaction easy with right click and that kind of things. But I never thought that FlashPlayer would hide data that could help find bugs, or give better knowledge of how flash is interpreted.
As you may know, The mm.cfg files is located in:
Windows; C:\Documents and Settings\username\mm.cfg
OSX; /Library/Application Support/Macromedia/mm.cfg
Linux; home/username/mm.cfg
This file is interpreted when a Flash Player instance launches a SWF and gives indication of what should or shouldn’t be done.
For example, most people use this file to set tracing parameters:
ErrorReportingEnable=1
TraceOutputFileEnable=1
TraceOutputFileName=c:\logs\flashlogs.txt
MaxWarnings=50
Many other options are specified in the Adobe FlashPlayer Admin Guide… but most of is NOT DOCUMENTED!
There is a LOT of thing to talk about and many cutting edge tools to improve your understanding of flash.
So let’s get into it
The Treasure
The complete list of features of mm.cfg is at the end of the post, but first lets talk about what’s most interesting.
I took my favorite 7 features and made detailed explanation with example for each one so here they are:
TraceOutputBuffered = 1|0
This feature is essential to the rest of all the cool features because they output A LOT of lines in the flashlog
This is a very simple features but it change everything. Did you ever had problem tracing to many information and losing half of it in the flashlog?
Well this is a known bug. If you make a loop of 1 000 000 and you trace the iterator, the flashlog will skip thousand of entries and will take 100% of your CPU while writing to disk.
If you set this variable to true, the traces will be buffered and the write to disk will output multiple lines in one access.
Performance? By default (without this feature), I’m able to trace 3600 line in 6 seconds and my CPU is at 100%.
If I turn the features on, I can trace 1 000 000 lines in the same time! And my CPU is not even near 100%.
AS3Verbose = 1|0
This one is totally crazy.
It traces detailed information about SWF ByteCode structure and Runtime parsing of the bytecode!
You don’t need any software… no special framework to bind in your own SWF… just this one flag!

AS3Trace = 1|0
This one is also very useful for debugging
It trace every single call to any function that is being called in the SWF at runtime!
It’s like expending the StackTrace to the full software run time.
If you got a crash hard to find, you can turn this on and you will see ALL the last function executed that leaded to the crash.
You can even see Timer Call and Events callbacks!

AS3StaticProfile = 1|0
This flag enable Just in Time Compiler (NanoJIT) logs.
It gives detailed information on function conversion, bytecode conversion, MIR (machine-dependent intermediate representation) created, memory used and many others.
At the end of execution, it also output a summary of all bytecode processed (For each opcode you have the number of occurrence, relatives importance, etc)

AS3DynamicProfile = 1|0
This one give dynamic information about the opcodes being called and gives statistic for each.
The statistics include count, cycles, %count, %times and CPI
My question is: Having access to the CPI (Cycle per instruction) will we be able to conclude all
fights between what operation is faster that the others? Cycle counts does not lies (on the same platform…)
* Request for Jackson Dunstan: Wanna work on that? *
But there is a problem with this one, it crash all the time.
My guess is it can’t process “Flash Object” like Movieclip, Event, and all the other and only support operation valid in tamarin.

Use GPULogOutputFileName = [path] to specify where to output that log.
Use DisplayGPUBlend = 1 to display the little green square while GPU runs
use ForceGPUBlend = 1 (At your own risk) to force GPU event if your videocard is not officially listed as valid for Flash GPU.

PreloadSwf?flashvar1=value&…
This is mainly used by the FlashBuilder Profiler. When you launch a SWF profiling, FlashBuilder add this line to mm.cfg to make it run another SWF before the one you profile.
The default file is: C:/Documents and Settings/{USER}/My Documents/Flex Builder 3/.metadata/.plugins/com.adobe.flash.profiler/ProfilerAgent.swf?host=localhost&port=9999
The profiler agent is a SWF that use the as3 sampling classes to collect information and send them all over a socket connection to FlashBuilder.
FlashBuilder is only interpreting that data received from the SWF
By changing localhost by any other machine name you can connect to a remote FlashBuilder Profiler. On the Remote profiler you need to check the “wait for application” box and then start the local SWF on the other machine.
This one is just crazy powerful: See: One SWF to rule them all! and New visual Profiler
The Full List

ProductDisabled = 1|0
Creates a list of ProductManager applications that users are not permitted to install or launch.
ProductDownloadBaseUrl
??
ProfileFunctionEnable = 1|0
Enable/Disable Profiling information (if turned off, we can’t profile function in FlexBuilder anymore)
ProfilingOutputDirectory = [path]
Specify where to save the ProfilerData file
ProfilingOutputFileEnable = 1|0
Specify if we want to create a file containing all the profiler data (flashprof_1265745253708.dat)
RendererProfilingEnable = 1|0
Enable/Disable Profiling information (if turned off, we can’t profile in FlexBuilder anymore)
RTMFPP2PDisable = 1|0
Specifies how the NetStream constructor connects to a server when a value is specified for peerID, the second parameter passed to the constructor.
RTMFPTURNProxy = 1|0
Lets Flash Player make RTMFP connections through the specified TURN server in addition to normal UDP sockets.
ScriptStuckTimeout = X
Lets you specify the time after what the timeout (too much time running a script) exception will popup
SecurityDialogReportingEnable = 1|0
Lets you specify whether the Security dialog should be visible or not.
SuppressDebuggerExceptionDialogs = 1|0
Lets you specify whether the Error dialog should be visible or not.
ThirdPartyStorage
Lets you specify whether third-party SWF files can read and write locally persistent shared objects.
TraceOutputBuffered = 1|0
Specify the flash player to use a buffer before writing to disk. If you had problem when tracing tousands of lines and line were skipped, this solve the thing. It’s also a lot faster (1000000 trace in 7 seconds instead of 3200 trace in 7 sec!)
TraceOutputFileEnable = 1|0
Set TraceOutputFileEnable to 1 to enable the debugger version of Flash Player to write trace messages to the log file.
TraceOutputFileName= [path]
(Before Flash 9) Sets the location of the log file. By default, the debugger version of Flash Player writes error messages to a file named flashlog.txt, located in the same directory in which the mm.cfg file is located.
UseBrokerProcess = 1|0
Lets you specify if you want to use elevated privileges or not (See the FlashPlayer update)
WindowlessDisable = 1|0
Lets you disable Floating Flash (ex: Ads)
Conclusion
This whole thing opens a new playground for hardcore programmer like me.
A lot can be done with this new information:
Custom Profiling tool using AS3Verbose and AS3Trace modes
Custom Profiling tool using .dat generated by FlashProfiler
Automatic Code performance warning using NanoJIT structure analysis
Guide to performance using CPI (cycle per instruction)
Mapping of profiler using the PreloadSwf features (instead of localhost put any other host that have a valid profiler)
I didn’t have time to work extensively on each features and I may have interpreted incorrectly certain things.
If it’s the case please tell me and I’ll modify this post. If you do test or benchmark using this post information please post them as comment here and I’ll add the benchmark later in the post.
