    I always have a stub loader swf that preloads assets into a loadvars or xml object then replaces itself when complete. Basic example:

    preloader_lv = new LoadVars();
    preloader_lv.onLoad = function()
    {
    _level0.loadMovie(mainSwf);
    }
    preloader_lv.load(mainSwf);

    LoadVars or XML can load any type of file, so once it's done the content is cached and loads (almost) instantly when referenced again.
