Flash game hogs CPU

[jbrown]

I have an addictive flash game called NinjaGame - using macromedia FlashPlayer 7 ( only game where I've cracked a key!!! ) - but it is often jerky and when I open Activety Monitor it shows that it is using around 78% of the CPU.

Now this is a really simple 2 D game, and should use minimal reasources - and thoughts why its so high, and anything I can do about it?

cheers

I don't know what to tell you I think this happens to everyone. If you try it on a PC with IE it's super fast and runs realllyyyy smooth. My p4 2.0ghz dell w/ 256mb ram runs flash movies faster than our 2.3Ghz Dual G5 with 2.5gb ram.

mb you should try out flash player 8 and see how that performs.
