Hello
I create complex flex froject. And now it eat about 30% CPU then I cut down the browser?
What it can be
A:
Flex can be greedy, but 30% is a bit high. Please tell us the computer specifications, software (browser, OS) and what the Flex is doing. E.g.: Videos can eat up lots of CPU

And how old is your computer? (Celeron covers a ten year period of time.) Celeron is also a relatively weak CPU. The 30% maybe normal for such a CPU. Again, what is your Flex app doing?

One thing that i've recently been burnt by is statefull assets pulled in from a swc. I recently took the time to change all the statefull skins to stateless skins and my cpu droped from about 40% to about 3-4%

There could also be many other problems with the efficiency with you code but if you do use steful skins then it's bound to be that.

A:
Sometimes just the render loop can consume a lot of CPU time.
If you've raised your framerate in the application, this could be a source of such a high idle usage.
Alternatively, you can try lowering the framerate of your app, it may help. Depending on your app, 12 or 15fps might be enough.
But in general, consuming huge amounts of CPU like that is likely your app trying to do something.
