How can I speed up flash in Ubuntu ?

[DaviesX]

I'm using an atom CPU and Intel integrated GPU, It's just like playing without any hardware acceleration, it uses 50 or even most CPU when playing 360p video on YouTube. And it's a bit more sluggish when I turn it to full screen mode. When I use Xp, it only uses 20-30 %. Is there any way to speed up its performance ?

It probably has a lot to do with better driver optimizations for Windows. Atom is not very powerful, Intel's graphics drivers are often lacking, and Flash is a bit of a resource hog.

What version of Ubuntu are you using?

I use Ubuntu 12.04 with lxde running on it
