Problems like crashing my browsers 10x a week, and using 50x the CPU that mplayer uses to play the same video.

Don't forget 20x the RAM.
Running it using nspluginwrapper seems to make it so that when Flash crashes, it doesn't take Firefox down with it.

I regularly killall npviewer.bin too, when Flash is hung or doing something weird. Reload the page and it restarts.
