Just notice that after updating to Safari 5 (mac) all the flash applications that respond to resize events got sluggish.

this works great with firefox 3.6.3, Chrome can deal with it fine, although not so fast as Firefox, but new Safari gives a awful experience, distorting all content if you do fast resizing.
Any ideas why is this happening / and how can I get a better performance with safari browsers?
Somebody told me this wouldn't happen in the Safari 5 on his computer. So at least there might be a chance to turn the damned feature off. (freaks me out)
I experienced the same problem. For me it started after I recently upgraded to CS5. I have been looking into all sorts solutions, and was relieved to discover I could turn off the problem be de-activating the switch to launch Safari in 32 bit mode (Thanks Mark L and dome). - I'm not sure if installing CS5 might have turned this on as I never seemed to have the problem before, or if it is a new issue between Safari and the Flash plugin. I agree with Mark too, in that it wouldn't surprise me if Apple were taking extra measures to hurt flash in order to maintain their iphone app monopoly. Now I am just wondering how things will be for 32 bit Safari users? I normally like Safari but it doesn't look like it will the sites I wanna build.
