From the top command :

8587 ykarant 20 0 794m 449m 30m R 81.8 5.6 561:50.12 plugin-containe

with the 81.8 being %CPU composite usage on a modern quad-core X86-64 machine.

ps axw reveals:

8587 ? Sl 562:06 /usr/lib/firefox/plugin-container /usr/lib/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so -greomni /usr/lib/firefox/omni.jar 13704 true plugin

Does anyone understand why plugin-container for libflashplayer.so is such a CPU usage hog?
