For what it's worth, I think this high CPU usage happened even with Safari 2.0 which is prior to the removal of the plugin event limiting code. On my G4, I'm getting ~60% CPU usage from shipping Safari/WebKit, and ~80% from a nightly with Safari 3 beta. Given that there's video playing, I'm not sure if this is a particularly bad result. Oh, I should mention I'm using the beta flash 9 quartz plugin, which is significantly "better" http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer9/ I should note that the video on a background page becomes jumpy for me even with Safari 3 when playing another one in front window, probably because the processor isn't fast enough. This explains why the difference is not so large. NPAPI support is gone and this website was primarily using Flash in back old days. I think this can be marked as "RESOLVED WONTFIX". Thanks! |
