So, does that mean that you are implying that the irreducible complexity of tasks which were non-taxing to 15 year old computers in the early cd-rom "multimedia" era (e.g. various 2d animations and interactivity and video) in some way fundamentally require 100% CPU usage on modern multi-core multi-gigahertz processors?

Frankly I don't buy it.

No that is not what I am implying, although it is a valid fault with nearly all of the software we run on personal computers, not just Flash.
