Bit offtopic, but i am curious to know why AS1.0 is removed in this version. Are their any performance issues when using AS1.0 ?

Yes, SFS2X provides tons of performance improvements which are completely wasted with AS1.

If you are serious about server programming you should use Java. AS1 has no control over concurrency, it is much slower and limited, doesn't scale well.
SFS2X is targeted at very large MMO and games with potentially hundreds of thousands of concurrent users. Only pure Java can scale to those heights.
