In AS3, what is ApplicationDomain.domainMemory for?

    Great question - especially with Adobe's new ["Premium" features](http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/premium-features.html) in the player that are tied to this function! – Russ Mar 28 '12 at 16:10

    "Premium" features, lol, AKA "DRM" AKA "intentionally non-functional software that needs fixed by a hacker". Glad they got rid of those: "As of January 2013, Adobe is no longer classifying the XC APIs as a Premium Feature." "There are currently no public Premium Features in the Flash runtimes." – Triynko Mar 31 '14 at 21:04

This defines a ByteArray for the use with fast memory access which currently unfortunately can only be used by Adobe Alchemy or using Joa Ebert's TDSI helper project or Haxe. For regular ActionScript this has no use.
