- not_an_alien 16y agoThe player has had major changes in terms of memory use, frame/execution timing, and how it is suspended or not. You're taking one phrase from a non-tech person and judging from that.
- otto 16y agoI took that as a paraphrased quote from a tech journalist. I hope you are right though. I know from my experience with Flash on Linux that it is insane, Flash eventually consumes 4gb of memory and slows my computer to a halt. I finally just removed the plugin and browse without flash.
- cjbos 16y agoYou can read the release notes to understand the changes, they detail them pretty well. First 7 pages are changes. http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/releasenotes.pdf http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/releasenote... (PDF Link) Also there is a huge number of bug fixes in this release... don't know why they didn't just call it Flash Player 11, it's not really a dot release.
