UPDATE: So I discovered the reason why the bouncing ball didn't seem to smooth, yet people insisted that it should be.
It seems that Flash for Mac is much slower at rendering than Flash for PC. The same file with a target fps of 100 runs at around 60fps on my dual core 2.16ghz mac, but runs at 98fps on a 1.7ghz single core PC.
I guess it makes sense that Adobe spent all their time optimizing the PC version.
