Using a Toshiba L455D-S5976, 4 GB ram, Windows 7, Firefox 4.0, recently upgraded from previous version. Plugin-container size is 140580k in the task manager and pegs the processor to 100%. Especially bad when using Facebook applications. Was the same on previous version of Firefox. Thought ram upgrade would help,but it didn't. Similar setup on Sony Laptop using Vista does not have the same problem.

hey, seems like flash player has some issues when running out-of-process, here's how flash can be prevented from doing so: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins#Firefox_4

also, here i read, there seems to be an issue with flash using hardware acceleration: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/796191

for me, right-click settings on a TED-video, disabling hardware acceleration helped already a lot!

hope there will be a fix for this soon!
