FlashPlayerPlugin_12_0_0_77.exe*64 CPUs. Firefox at 369,616 K FlashPlayerPlugin at 1,550,628 K and 51% CPU. Firefox extremely sluggish. This has been happening for about 6 months with very new release of Flash and Firefox. Makes Firefox unusable. Fix this or people will start to move to google chrome or IE

– appears to be related to Adobe Flash Player (I upgraded to the latest release, 12.0.0.44, when I upgraded to Firefox 27). Any page with Flash content kicks off the problem; successive similar pages increase the problem until the Firefox process becomes CPU bound. Temporary workaround (other than restarting Firefox) is to select Tools>Add-ons>Plugins, and then change the activation setting for Flash from "Always Activate" to "Ask to Activate"

The above temp workaround works in an limited way. as soon as you reply to activate in one tab/window it then auto activates in all other windows/tabs.

i am running current version of win/7 64 bit, ff 28.0, adobe flashplayer 12.0.0.77

Many system do not work well with the Protected Mode feature of the Flash Player plugin enabled. The following pages provide different ways to disable that feature:

Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.

Any difference?
