cpu usage jumps from 2% to 50%+ when viewing flash videos
Asked by
ernie
Am not sure if this is any longer the right forum for me since I just "downgraded" from Ubuntu 9.04 to Xunbuntu 9.04 on my laptop (Intel Pentium M 1.73Ghz, 1Gig RAM).
The reason for downgrading was to hopefully stop the crashing/freezes that often occured while streaming videos. However, upon running "top" in a terminal, I noticed the big jump in cpu usage when streaming a video in youtube, that is, 50%+ compared to 2-3% otherwise.
The installed Firefox flash plug-in is Shockwave Flash 10.0 r22. Can somebody please help with this particular issue?
Thanks.
