Odd. I find the nspliginwrapper helper app sitting in 100% cpu loops
most of the time with my firefox frozen. Using 32 bit firefox and
no nspluginwrapper works much better for me (and I actually find it
convenient to be able to run 64 bit firefox and know that annoying flash
content won't appear :-).
No problem with F8, firefox-2.0.0.12-1.fc8.x86_64,
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-17.fc8.x86_64,
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-17.fc8.i386
