Improving Code

[Tristan49]

Hi guys! My Actionscript 3 code to make a simple 2D platformer is using almost 100% of my CPU. Can anyone check out my code and see where I could reduce the usage of the processor?

Thanks

PS: Total beginner in the coding world.

import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;
import flash.events.Event;
next.visible=false;

// adding variables to track player speed :)
var speedX=0;
var speedY=0;

// Created a new array for the collectables :D
var level:Array = new Array();
var collectables:Array = new Array();
for (var i=0; i<numChildren; i++)  {
	if (getChildAt (i) is platform) {
		level.push(getChildAt(i).getRect(this));
	} else if (getChildAt(i) is Collectable) {
		collectables.push(getChildAt(i));
	}
}


//make variable to store key strokes
var kUp = false;
var kDown = false;
var kLeft = false;
var kRight = false;

// listen for key presses and releases keys
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, kD);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_UP, kU);
