Getting total amount of memory, available in Adobe Flash from ActionScript

Question

I have to load a lot of data from BlazeDS and/or Livecycle DS service to Adobe Flex and would like to find out what's available from memory stand point. This is similar to querying in java: long heapSize = Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory()

Answer 1

You can't find the available memory, but you can find the memory currently in use via the System.totalMemory property.
