hi,
since a long time, i noticed seamonkey creates always two instances of flashplayer (by example FlashPlayerPlugin_11_9_900_117.exe).
i can see them in the windows 7 task manager.
why both doesn't use the same % of cpu usage, neither the memory usage ?
I have a huge hardware config, and that both process are always the more consumable ressources process.
What i hate the more, is that when you are on a webpage which have twice the same flash animation (often the one which promote a old plane video game), the cpu usage go crazy and high, higher that i can hear my cpu fan ! i repeat, i have a huge hardware config, so this problem must be a bug somewhere.
when i open the same page (under chrome or Ie), the one with the double same animation, the cpu usage is not so higher !
in the old years, seamonkey didn't use the plugin-container (seamonkey 1.x i think), and flash animation and cpu usage were not so high and noised.
Actually, it is the problem that make me balancing the more in the Chrome usage : broswe webpage with flash without listen to my cpu fan ! Else, i have to constantly kill the plugin-container instance once i open to many page with multiple flashes advert and animation (abused flash and natural flash uses)
thank for help (else not, i could really fall into a constant dealy Chrome way...)
ps : i don't have the url of the double flash animation, once i got one, i will try to put it here
why does seamonkey create two flashplayer instances ?

If I'm recalling, it had to do with "Integrity Level", with one thread running at Medium, the other at Low, running in a safer manner then if both threads (or a single thread) ran at Medium.
