Scroll bar causes slowdown.

I have a scrollbar movie clip symbol which consists of 3 frames- the 1st one only gets played once, the 2nd one sets a scrollvalue variable from the y value of the slider bar and the 3rd does a gotoAndPlay(2) so that the 2nd frame can keep setting the scrollvalue. The problem is that this tight looping causes the movie that contains the scroll bar to be really slow. Is there some better way to do a scroll bar, slow down the looping, or speed up the rest of my movie? (I've upgraded to Flash 5, so if anyone knows of any Flash 5 specific methods, that would be great too).
Thanks,
