new newegg ad eats 100% of proc

I know I'm supposed to be supportive of our sponsors and all, but newegg's new ad is eating up 100% of my processor w/ firefox. Can you get them to make it less intense?

600mhz celeron.

Well all be damn! It is near 100 for me too, guess theres alot going on in that flash

70% Average CPU usage by Firefox from me! On a 2.08Ghz 2600+ Thoroughbred. It's a pretty flash though

i am having the same problem, my computer is only 333mhz but damn! i have comcast high-speed internet and do not expect this kind of slow loading from any site i visit!

[EDIT] maybe newegg did this on purpose? if we think our computers suck because of the bad load times......we will see the ad and buy better stuff from them

thats weird the newegg add is only eating up 2-8% processor for me on a 400mhz fsb 2ghz northwood dell using newest firefox to...well i opened 8windows up with the same ad and its still just maxing out at 33%

btw i have comcast high speed internet and its downloads like 530KiloBYTES per second

New Egg ad is eating up up to 40% of my processor and goes up and down as the shit moves.

41 % here..But I'd kladly give 110% for NewEgg

10% here. You guys must have something wrong with your flash install.

only uses 2-4% of my 2.8

yea on my athlon 3000 its hitting 54% and with 1 tab it is 30%... well i guess i can live without the hardforum

lol,
22% with my 2.5 xp-m

i would say its either a problem with your flash install or firefox, because here on IE i am only getting ~10% cpu on a 1.4 Pmobile

1-4% for me on both machines.
XP 2200
Dual Xeon P4's

Perhaps its my video card as well... its an ATI Mobility M1. Dont want to buy a new laptop coz of neweggs banner ads...

OK, this is weird. It's now using 0-4%.

I think it has been established that the problem, if there is one, is on an individual usage basis and not an across the board problem. For the record I'm getting 2-7% with 27% spikes on the cycle as are most other members. If it proves to be a system wide problem, it will be addressed.

2~4%, Opera 7.5 on dual 2ghz bartons

I don't know what useage it takes on my A64 3000+.

I'm not shutting down FAH5 long enough to find out, either.

Well, better check...

...

Hmmm, looks like about 18% average loss of FAH5 goodness with this page loaded AND the ad visible on the page. If I scroll down, or change to another tab, Core_65 jumps back to 98%.

New ad, please.

50% 2200 XP on firefox 1.0

7-10% with Pentium M 1.3 and firefox 1.0 running at 600MHZ
