I was trying to look at a web site with flash, and it seemed to start up OK

almost 100% and stayed there. System is Fedora Core 3, kernel 2.6.12-1
(stock Fedora upgrade), Mozilla 1.7.10, ShockwaveFlash 7.0r25. The
offending URL is:

Anyone seen problems like this before? Any idea how to troubleshoot this,
or at least limit the mozilla CPU usage to something a lot lower?

The web site is completely unusable without Flash. Flash seems to work OK
on other sites. Heck, the problem might not even be Flash but some
Javascript bug.

The site displayed properly for me using Firefox 1.0.6 on a Mepis (Debian based) system, kernel 2.6.10, Althon XP3000, 1GB RAM, with the same Flash version you're using. After an initial spike, CPU load settled in at about 26%, which is still a lot higher than it normally runs.

It also worked fine using Opera 8.02.

It would embarrass me to admit how much time I spent poking around this website. :-)
