Flash definitely outperforms HTML5 on mobile and desktop: http://www.craftymind.com/guimark3/

The native Android browser isn't very good in JavaScript (not JIT? old JIT?). Firefox Mobile and Opera Mobile outperform it greatly. That's the advantage of a real open standard: you can choose your implementation.

No such luck with Flash.

But which eats more battery?
The slower one, as the CPU must stay on longer. Not a good argument, hence.
